What is Ontario?

(0) "eins is the Premier Province of the Dominion of

Canada. It is as large as the French Republic or the
German Empire. It has a population of over 2,000,000,
contained in one-thir of its area.

Ontario is without a doliar of Provincial debt. The municipal
taxes for all purposes, including schools, average only $6 a head
per year of the whole population. There is no direct tax for either
Provinciai or Dorainion Government revenue.

Its climate is healthful and invigorating, warm in summr~ and
exhilarating in winter. It admits of the growth of grapes, peaches,
plums, pears and apples in the greatest abundance, and of un-
excelled appearance and flaver.

Its cereals, grasses and roots stand unrivalled on the American
continent. Its cheese stands first on the British market, and its
live stock products are noted for their excellence.

The timber and mineral wealth of Ontario is enormous, and
will provide the greater portion of revenue necessary for conducting
the public affairs of the Province for many years to come.

The tourist and sportsman may revel amongst the fish and
game and the marvelous beauties of scenery the lakes and rivers
of Ontario afford. The world-famed Niagara, the island summer-
ing places on the St. Lawrence, the Georgian Bay and the Muskoka
Lakes, the wild magnificence of its unsettled Northland—Algonquin
Park, Lake Superior, Lake of the Woods, Rainy River. All these
and more are within the bounds of the Province.

Life in Toronto, Hamilton, Ottawa, London and other cities
and towns of Ontario, provides religious facilities, educational
idee social privileges and business opportunities of the best
class.

The Government of Ontario is practically a pure form of
democracy, forming in confederation with six other Provinces the
Dominion of Canada. Its institutions are most enlightened and
advanced. It is a country of splendid promise and offers attractive
homes and spheres of activity for millions of citizens.

Ontario still has millions of acres of free grant and low priced
land, equal in fertility to any in the Province, to offer settlers.

In 1862 Mr. Morgan established ‘* The Canadian Parliamentary Coim-
panion,” which he edited and published, annually, up to 1876; and, in
1878, he established ‘*The Dominion Annual Register and Review,”
which he likewise edited and published, annually, up to 1887.

‘* More feneral contributions to history are the works of the Abbé Faillon, of Mr.
Parkman, of Dr. Scadding, of the Abbé Laverdiére, of Sir J. M. Le Moine, of Judge Hali-
burton, of Mr. Fennings Taylor, of Dr. Miles, of the Abbé Casgrain, of Col. Gray, of Mr.
Louis Turcotte, of Mr, Charles Lindsey, of Dr. George Stewart, and of Mr. H, J. Morgan.
We might add very largely to this list, which serves rather tu show the variety of ways in
which historical talent may be advantageously occupied than to sum up what has been
accomplished, Of all these writers there is none who is more deserving of the gratitude
of his fellow-citizens than the last-mentioned. Hardly a day passes, indeed, in which we,
as journalists, do not refer for information to some of Mr. Morgan’s various stores of
information, and rarely do we refer to them in vain. His latest enterprise, ‘‘ The Dominion
Annual Register,” the last issue of which we had the pleasure not long since of reviewing
in these columns, will prove of exceeding value to the future historian. It is a repertory
of all that is really important in the history of the year, and is the only source to which
we can go, with the confidence that we shall not be disappointed, for political or general
information. Yet this is only one of the results of Mr. Morgan’s thoughtfulness, ability
and energy. His ‘‘Celebrated Canadians,” his ‘ Bibliotheca Canadensis,” his ‘‘ Legal
Directory,” and his ‘ Parliamentary Companion,” are also contributions to history of
superior interest anu value. The two former have won deserved praise on both sides of
the Atlantic, especially in the great English reviews, and we bespeak for the new edition
of them, which is now in preparation, a reception even more favourable, in proportion to
Canada’s greater and growing importance.”—Montreal Gazette.

PREFACE.

Keres the scope and object of Tar CanapiaAn MEN
+m anp WomEN or THE TIME are sufficiently indicated on
its title-page, a further word or two from the Editor may not
he without interest to the reader.

Commencing with the Editor’s ‘Sketches of Celebrated
Canadians,” published in 1862, there have appeared from the
native press, at various times, many works and _ publications
of a similar character. The present work, however, would seem
to be the first attempt made to supply a hand-book of biography
devoted exclusively to living persons, of both sexes, including
among these Canadians of note dwelling in all parts of the
world. That the number of the latter is very considerable no
person can doubt who examines these pages. Canadians have
earned and are still earning distinction for themselves and
their country in every clime and, indeed, under every form of
government,

In carrying out his design the Editor has tried to adhere to
the arrangement adopted in the English ‘“ Men and Women of
the Time,” a work whose excellence is universally recognized.
Some features, now introduced for the first time in a biographical

dictionary, will, it is hoped, be found useful. These are, Ist,

including in certain of the sketches the recorded or original

<a)

.

vi PREFACE,

———— Se

opinions of the subject of the sketch on the public questions of
the day ; 2nd, adding, to the majority of the sketches, opinions
taken from the public press or other trustworthy authority
on the merits, work and services of the subject thereof; and
3rd, supplying the post-oflice address, town residence, and club
(if any) of each person represented in the book.

The Editor has conscientiously endeavoured to prepare a book
which shall be found full and accurate, and to be truly repre-
sentative of Canadian achievement, intellect and worth ; still, as
mistakes are inseparable from all human undertakings, he is not
without misgivings that he may have fallen into errors, but he
is not without hope that these will be found few and trivial.

It is intended to make The CanapIAN MEN AND WOMEN OF
THE TIME a permanent institution in the land, a new edition,
thoroughly revised, appearing every three years. Suggestions
for new names, corrections and additional information are
respectfully invited.

The Editor feels himself under a great weight of obligation to
many gentlemen throughout the country for valuable assistance
rendered him in his present task. To one and all he here

tenders the expression of his mest grateful acknow!sdgments.

and Carnarvon resigned their officee.
Lord A. heartily supported them in
the step they had taken. In 1880
he was apptd. Lord-Lieut. of Aber-
deenshire. In the following year he
was called to the dignity of Lord
High Commr., to the Genl. Assembly
of the Ch. of Scot., an office to
which he was reapptd. five yrs. in
succession. In 1875 he was a mem.,
and subsequently he became Chair-
man of the Royal Comn. apptd. to

on the Comte. of the Ho, of Lords

departure were most marked, Noth- | Commons, who acquitted himself of

ing like the demonstration then
made by the people had been seen
there since the leave-taking of Karl
Fitzwilliam in 1795.” In 1887 Lord
A., accompanied by Lady Aberdeen,
made a tour, in the course of which
he visited India, Ceylon, Australia,
New Zealand, and the U.S. Later,
in 1890, he took up his residence
in Can. for a few months, and again
returned to this country in 1891.
On these occasions he made himself
acquainted with the wonderful nat-
ural resources of B.C., and as one
result of his observations invested
largely in lands in that Province.
On one portion of his new estate in
the Okanagan Dist. he has since
maintained a ranche for stock-breed
ing purposes ; on another a thriving
and extensive fruit-farm, together
with a forty were hop-yard. His
appt. as Gov.-Genl. of Can. took
place in 1893. His Excellency ar-
rived at Quebec by the Allan steamer
Sardinian, on Sunday, Sept. 17, and
was given a hearty welcome by all
classes of the population. On the
following day he was sworn into
office by Sir Henry Strong, Chief
Justice of Can. Since then he has
traversed the entire Dom. in his
official capacity. While of course
making Ottawa their headquarters
and principal place of abode, Lord
and Lady A. have since their arrival
in Can. contrived to reside for a
portion of each year in one of the
several provinces of the Dom., and
in this way to come into personal
contact with the people and their
interests in the various portions of
the country, a unifying influence
with reference to the Dom. as a
whole being thus promoted. The
most noteworthy incident of Lord
A.’s Vice-Royalty thus far occurred
in June, 1896, when, in consequence
of their defeat at the polls, the
Con. Admn. at Ottawa, led by Sir
Charles Tupper, resigned.

the task to the entire satisfaction of
the Gov.-Genl. As one result of the
change of administration, Can. has
committed herself to a fiscal policy,
which for the first time embraces
preferential trade arrangements with
the Mother Country. Karly in 1897,
as the result of a public appeal made
by Lord A. as Gov.-Genl,, the sum
of about $200,000 was subscribed by
the people of Can. in aid of Her
Majesty’s famine-stricken subjects in
India, The Earl of A. m. Nov. 7,
1877, the Hoi. Ishbel Maria Mar
joribanks, younger dau. of the first
Lord Tweedmouth. This lady, who
has been well described as ‘‘ a noble
woman, possessing rare executive
ability, great capacity for work, and
the broadest sympathies,” was, be-
fore coming to Can., the Presdt. of
several Women’s Assns, in Gt. Brit.,
including the Scottish Mothers’
Union, the Women’s Local Govt.
Soc., and the Women’s Liberal Fed-
eration of Eng. and of Scot., a
position which Her Excellency re-
signed on coming to Can., owing to
the strictly non-political character
of the Gov.-Genl.’s functions. While
at Dublin Castle in 1886, Lady <A.
organized the [rish Industries Assn. ,
its object being to develop home
industries among the poorer people.
In order to strengthen the work of
the Assn., it was decided to have
a display of Irish industries at the
World’s Fair, Chicago, and this dis
play was carried out under Lady A.’s
supervision, Her Lacyship crossing
the ocean for that purpose. On leav-
ing Irel. on that occasion, she re-
ceived the thanks of the Queenstown
Municipal Bd., and of numerous
other public bodies in Irel., irre-
spective of political parties and relig-
ious creeds (including a represen-
tative meeting of citizens of Dublin,

drawn from all classes of Scottish
women, the object being a more
sisterly interest in one another
among women in every station of
life, and especially among mistresses |
ard their Teenale servants. In Can,
Lady A. has likewise brought her-
self closely in touch with the people,
‘and in a variety of ways has
materially assisted her husband
in his work of national unification
and development, Chief among her

Assns. together in a federation
pledged to ‘further the applica-
tion of the Golden Rule to society,
custom and law,” held its first meet-
‘ing in Ottuwa in May, 1894, and
promises to become a permanent in-
stitution in theland. At the meeting
held in Toronto, 1895, the Council re-

‘the zeal, the unfailing tact, the |
administrative ability, and devotion |
to the cause of humanity by which

Her Excellency the Countess of

Aberdeen has endeared herself to |
the hearts of the women of the
~ Dominion.” Another organization

‘in which Lord and Lady A. take |

' the deepest interest, and which was

~ founded by Her Excellency, is the

Aberdeen Assn., for sending out |
literature to settlers in the isolated |
districts of Can., who are unable to |
procure reading for themselves. In
commemoration of the Queen’s Dia-
mond Jubilee, Lady A. now desires
to found another institution, the
** Victorian Order of Nurses,” in
Sympathy with the movement in
Gt. Brit. for establishing the Queen’s
ubilee Nurses under the special
patronage of Her Majesty. To carry
out this scheme, which will place
efficiently trained, skilful, certified
Murses within the reach of all classes
f the population, it is stated that a

will be required. The scheme has
been warmly endorsed at public
meetings held in all the principal
cities of the Dom., and will undoubt-

| edly become an accomplished fact in

due course of time. Not the least

'of Her Excellency’s gifts are those

which have made her so _ widely
known as a writer and speaker.
She is the author of ‘‘ Through Can.
ada with a Kodak,” a series of de-
scriptive sketches of Can. Among
her public addresses, ‘‘ The Present
Irish Literary Revival,” and that
on ‘The University and its Effect
on the Woman,” the latter delivered
at the Eighteenth Quarterly Con-
vovation of the Univ, of Chicago,
Apl., 1897, are the most recent.

services, Her Kxcellency in 1897 re-
ceived from Queen’s Univ., Kingston,

ADAM, Graeme Mercer, author and
editor, was b. 1839, at Loanhead,
Midlothian, Seot., and ed. at Edin,
His father, who d. 1841, was factor
on the estates of Graeme Mercer, of
Mavisbank and Gorthy, after whom
he was named, His mother was one
of the Wisharts of Montrose, and is |
a lineal descendant of Geo. Wishart, |
the Scottish martyr, Mr. A. may
almost be said to have been cradled
among books, for from early youth
he was engaged in the commerce of
literature, and at the age of 19 was
at the head of the retail branch of |
one of the oldest Scottish publishing
houses. Through the interest of
Wm. Blackwood & Sons, the well-
known Edinburgh publishers, young |

A. was in 1858 led to accept the |
management of the book-house of
Mr. (now Rev. Dr.) Cunningham
Geikie, who has since achieved dis-
tinction as a religious writer in Eng.,
anc. in that year came to Toronto to
enter upon his engagement. Two
yrs. afterwards he succeeded to
Mr. Geikie’s business, in connection
with a gentleman then engaged in
educational work, with whom he
formed a partnership under the firm
name of Rollo & Adam. This part- |
nership was dissolved, 1866, and in |

the following year, a new one was
formed under the style of Adam,
Stevenson & Co., which for 10 yrs.
was favourably known to the native
reading public, and especially to the

| book-selling community of the Dom.,

whose trade the operations of the
firm did much to elevate and de-
velop. During this period Mr. A,
threw himself actively into the work
of a publisher and wholesale book-
seller and importer—the many pub-
lications with the imprimatur of the
house attesting the spirit and enter-

| prise which characterized the work

of the firm and the impetus given to
the higher reading tastes of the
people. In 1876 Mr. A., in alliance
with the late John Lovell, the Mont-
real publisher, opened a publishing
house in N, Y., as an outlet for the
literature manufactured by memes,
of Mr. Lovell’s family at Rouse’s
Point, N.Y. ; but as the experiment
was not maintained he returned to
Toronto in the spring of 1878. Mr.
A.’s brief career as a N.Y, publisher
was not, however, barren of results,
for during the year in which his firm
did business in that city, over 60
works were issued bearing the im-
print of the house. The N.Y. enter-
prise, moreover, gave life to a house
founded by one of Mr. A.’s partners,
in continuation of the firm’s projects,
which subsequently developed into
the mammoth publishing concern
known as the U.S. Book Co. With
Mr. A.’s return to Toronto ends his
career as a publisher. At this date
his literary life may be said profes-
sionally to have begun, though as
far back as 1861, when publishing
the British Am. Mag., we find that
he cuntributed reviews of books to

| that periodical. From 1869 to 1872

he edited and, indeed, wrote almost
the whole of each number of a trade
quarterly, the Canada Bookseller,
issued by his firm as an organ of the
book and publishing houses of Can,
In 1872, with the co-operation of
Prof. Goldwin Smith and other
friends of Can. literature, he found-
ed the Canadian Monthly, and his
connection with that national mag.

was closely maintained u to the
period of his leaving for N.Y. In
the spring of 1879 Mr. A. resumed
his connection with the publication,
and became its sole ed., a position he |
retained until its decease, 1883. In
1879, also, Mr. A. launched the first |
number of the Can. Educational
Monthly, which, under his editor-
ship, lasting for over 5 yrs., won for
itself a high place in the periodical |
literature of Can., and was, at the
time, ranked as one of the ablest
professional mags. of the continent.
Mr, A. was also for several yrs.
office-ed, and business manager of
The Bystander, and in connection
with this duty acted as secy. and
literary assist. to Goldwin Smith.
He was also of the staff of writers
on the Week, when the latter gentle.
man hac relations with it; was like-
wise a contributor to the Toronto |
Nation, the Globe, the Mail, and
other journals of the Ont. « capital ;
and had much to do with almost all
the literary undertakings which orig-
inated in Toronto between the years
1872 and 1892. Besides these vari-
ous employments of his pen, Mr. A.
found leisure for authorship, and
the undertaking of literary work for
native as well as for Kng. and Am,
publishing houses, in contributing
articles, revising manuscripts, and |
putting works through the press. |
His interest in literature has ever

been ar. active one, and many native
literary ventures owe something to
the aid of his friendly pen. Mr. A.’s
services to education in Can. have
not been confined to journalistic and
mag. work. In 1885 he edited
a series of school reading books, in
§ volumes, known as the ‘* Royal
Canadian Readers”; two yrs. later
he also edited for Univ. use, a schol-
arly edition of Macaulay’s ‘* Kasay
on Warren Hastings,” and in con-
junction with J. W. Connor, B.A.,
he published the ‘Canadian High
School Word Book,” a manual of |
orthoepy, synonymy and cerivation.

period came chiefly from his pen, |

of nearly 250,000 copies. The work
was authorized for use in all the
schs. of Ont. as well as in many of
the educational institutions of other
provinces. In 1885 he published
“The Canadian North-West: its
History and its Troubles,” a résumd
of the annals of Man. and the Terri-
tories from the early fur-trade period,

Phreed
émeute in the Selkirk Settlement,
and the two Riel rebellions, In
1886, in conjunction with Miss A,
EK. Wetherald, he wrote an histori-
cal romance entitled ‘‘ An Algon-
quin Maiden,” which passed through
three separate editions, Of other
works which came from Mr, 4.’s pen
at this period, the chief is an ‘‘Out-
line History of Canadian Literature,”
published as an adderdvrs to Dr.
Withrow’s Can. History. ‘This was
followed by a volume summarizing
the work in Equatorial Africa of
Hy. M. Stanley, by a series of books
of a topographical and descriptive
character on Can., the more notable
of which is an interesting volume,
attractively embellished, entitled
** Tilustrated Quebec,” a companion
volume to ‘‘Illustrated ‘lToronto,”
also from Mr. A.’s pen. These were

jagain followed by ‘*Canada from

Sea to Sea,” a tourist’s hand-book
from Halifax to Vancouver, and by
a® similar though more local work
entitled “ Picturesque Muskoka.”
In 1884 Mr. A. was a contributor to
‘** Picturesque Canada,” edited by
Principal Grant, and recently he
has supervised a reissue of this
work for an Am. publisher. In
1891 appeared an elaborate pictorial
issued for the To-

Old and New,” a work designed as
a memorial of the 100th Anniversary
of the founding of U. C. and its
capital. In the same year was pub.

His chief connection there was with
the U.S. Book Co., as reader and
literary adviser for the house, as
well as reader for a number of other
publishing firms, native and foreign.
His intimate knowledge of the book
world, both Am. and Eng., brow, it
him not only into relations with the
chief publishers, but opened up fields
for his pen, in compilations, eyclo-
pedias, refurence books, ete., as well
as in magaz,nes and critical journals
as reviewer, 1emoir writer, and gen-
eral contributor. His familiarity
with Can. affairs was also of value
to him in utilizing his pen on Can,
articles, in such enterprises as John-
son’s ‘‘ Universal Cyclopedia,” in the
Americanized ‘ Encyclopedia Bri
tannica,” in the Am. issue of ‘* Pic
turesque Canada,” in the English
**Men of the Time,” and in review
work for the N.Y. iVutcon and other

sides this varied labour Mr. A. was
able to do considerable work as an
author, His most successful books

his father’s farm, ‘‘ Brier Bank,”
North Easthope, near Stratford,
Ont., July 11,4844. Ed. primarily
at the local public sch., and at
Stratford High Sch., he afterwards
went to Toronto for a few years
under private tuition. He ad,
however, acquired such a taste for
rural pursuits that further study
became irksome to him. He there-
fore returned to the farm, which he
managed for some yrs. Early in
life he had also imbibed a strong
taste for horticulture, and as a boy
was given full charge of the home
orchard and garden, then considered
one of the best in that part of the
Province. In pursuit of his inceli-
nation Mr, A. spent several yrs.,
after leaving the farm, travelling in
the U. S., and on returning to Ont.,

| gave the result of his acquired know-
ledge and observation in numerous
contributions to the periodical and
newspaper press, his letters and
articles, under various noms-de-

Farmer, the Farmer’s Advocate, the

of Am. and European fruits, his ser-
vices have been sought for by the
authorities at all the leading fairs
and exhibitions upon this Continent,
where he usually acts alone in the
performance of his duties. In 1886
he was apptd. a Commr. on Fruits
on behalf of Can., at the Ind. and
Col. Exhn , London, Eng. On this
occasion he spent nearly 6 months
in the world’s metropolis, and con-
ducted the most successful fruit ex-
hibitions which have ever been held
there, It is believed that these dis-
plays have done more to advertise
Can. favourably in Europe than prob-
ably any other agency.” While in
Brit. he examined all fruits grown
there, and selected for propagation
those he considered worthy. Be-
sides conducting the exhibitions at
London, and the International at
Edinburgh, held in that year, he
handled over 100,000 barrels of
apples in Brit. and continental mar-
kets for Can. shippers. He was one
of the first, and the largest shipper
of apples to the Brit. markets, and
made practical tests of other fruits
as well, from time to time. His
tests were not confined to Brit.
alone, but successful shipments were
made to Norway and Sweden, Ger-
many and India. He established
brands of apples in the Brit mar-
kets, and some 5 yrs. ago when he
orgeaizel the Imperial Produce Co.
of ‘Toronto, his brands were handed
over to that Co., which is now one
of the largest exporters of Can. pro-
ducts. Mr. A. organized this Co,
tor the purpose of bringing producers
and consumers closer together, and
the Co. has built up a magnificent
trade in this way, by taking the
goods direct from the producer in
Uan., and placing them in the hands
of the Brit. retailer. It took some
years to perfect the scheme, but it is
now so well established that it can-
not be broken up, although natur-
ally it did receive strong opposition
from speculators. Mr. A, is one of

others as local institutes may desire
to be made uainted with. In
ursuit of the principles of his pro-
ession he served some yrs. in the
nursery business in connection with
the old Toronto Nurseries. Outside
of his own particular line he has
never pushed for advancement, so
far as office is concerned. He has
never entered the political or muni-
cipal field, although frequently re-
quested to do so, When in Toronto
ere his studies, he entered the

. 8. under Col. (now Genl.) Lowry,
H. M.’s 47th Regt., and took a Ist
class certificate, but he has never
connected himself with any volun-
teer corps. Some yrs. ago he made
a thorough tour of the N. W. T. and
B. C., spending the whole of one
summer and more there, for the pur-
pose of acquainting himself with the
capabilities of that country as a
future field for fruit-growing and
forestry. While in B.C. upon this
occasion he was instrumental in

ton House, Kingston, Ont., Feb.
24, 1848. His early education was
pessonsly directed by his father,
ut before going to Oxford, he at-
tended King William Sch., Edg-
baston, near Birmingham, After
pono ig from Merton Coll. , where
e carried off the highest honours
that Coll. could bestow, he ac-
cepted the principalship of a Coll,
newly established at Spanish Town,
Jamaica, where he had the oppor-
tunity of observing the wonderful

vegetation of the tropics, and also.
: i

the peculiar features of West Indian
life, both of which he has since
turned to good account. His popu-
lar novel, ‘‘ In al! Shades,” is one of
the fruits of his tropical experi-
ences. He now began to pel it
frequently to the magazines, and
also to publish works on his own ac-
ccunt, and soon established a repu-
tation as one of the most popular of
scientific authors. He is considered
one of the best writers of the evolu-
tionary sch., and has ably contrib-
uted to the exposition of the Dar-
winian theory. Among his numer-
ous works the most noticeable are:
‘** Physiological Aisthetics” (1877) ;
‘The Colour Sense” (1879); ‘‘ The
Evolutionist at Large ” (1881);
** Anglo-Saxon Britain” (do) ;
‘* Vignettes from Nature ” (do);

(1884); ** Charles Darwin,” in
Andrew Lang’s Series of English
Worthies (1885) ; ‘‘ Babylon,” a novel
(1885); and ‘‘ For Mamie’s Sake”’
(1886). Others more recently pub-
lished, are: ‘‘ What’s Bred in the
Bone”; ‘* The Devil’s Die,” ‘* This
Mortal Coil,” ‘Dr, Palliser’s Pa-
tient,” ‘‘Farce and Energy,” ‘“Dum-
aresq’s Daughter,” ‘‘ Blood Royal,”
**The Attis of Catullus,” ‘ Science
in Aready,” ‘‘ Post-Prandial Phil-
osophy,” ‘The Scallawag,” ‘‘ The
Lower Slopes,” and ‘‘ At Market
Value.” lis latest novel, ‘‘ The
Woman Who Did” (1895), in which
he enunciates the doctrine that

matrimony should be replaced by a
contract terminable at will, in which
there is a perfect equality between
the contracting parties, has excited
much adverse criticism and been
condemned from many pulpits in
this couatry. In 1897 he com.
menced the publication of a series
of guide-books, dealing with the art
and history of some of the principal
towns of Kurope, — ‘' The Croft,”

signed, and was apptd, Lt.-Gover-

receiving an interim report from
two of the Royal Commrs. apptd.
to make enquiry into certain mat-
ters connected with the Baie des
Chaleurs Ry., he dismissed his min-
istry, led by the late Mr. Mercier,
onthe ground that they were not
in a position to ‘‘ wisely, disinter-
estedly, and faithfully” advise the
representative of the Crown. He
entered the Thompson Administra-
tion, Ottewa, as Mr. of Agriculture,
Dec. 5, 1592, and continued in office
under #:¢ Mackenzie Bowell. Ow-
ing to differences with his colleagues
on the Man. Sch. question, he re-

Presdt. of the Council, being also
leader in the Province of Quebec.
At the ensuing g. e. in June, Mr. A.
was defeated as a candidata in Que-
bec Centre. He retired from office
with his colleagues in July, and has
since been out of public life. He
received the hon. degree of LL.D.
from Laval Univ., 1888, and was
apptd. by the Pope, a Knight Grand
Cross of the Order of St. Gregory,
1890. ‘‘As Mr. of Agriculture,”
said the Montreal Gazette, Oct. -10,
1894, ‘*Mr. A. carried into his ad-
ministration of the dept. those qual-
ities which he had before eminently
manifested, and which led to his
selection for that place. The quar-
antines when he entered office were
a subject of outcry and denunciation
to the extent of affecting the reputa-
tion of the Govt. They are now in
a state of the utmost efficiency, and

were declared by our recent visitors
—the Health Assn. of the North

Am. Continent—a few days ago, to

be at the very head, not only of the
quarantine appliances of the conti-
nent, but of the world. That is a
point on which both Mi A. and the
Govt. may fairly be congratulated.”
As a legislator in Quebec, he placed
several important measures on the
Statute book, including an elec-
toral Act, which was declared to be
superior at the time, to the Dom.
Act on the same subject, a Contro-
verted Elections Act, and a law
applying the Superannuation Act
to the children of Civil servants.
He was also mainly instrumental
in securing the construction of the
North Shore Ry., between the cities
of Quebec and Montreal. In private
life, Mr. A. is known as a keen
sportsman, and delights more espe-
cially in yachting. He takes great
interest in historical research, and
while Lt.-Gov. of his native Pro-
vince, gave to the Cercle Cath., of
Quebec, two silver, and two bronze
medals, to be awarded to the authors
of the best essays, in French and
Eng. respectively, on ‘‘ Jacques

ARTHUR, Miss Julia, actress, was
b. in Hamilton, Ont., May 3, 1869,
and is of Irish and Welsh parentage.
Her real name is Ida Lewis; her
stage name being taken from her
mother, who was a Miss Arthur.
When only 11 ‘ous old, she played
in an amateur dramatic club in her
native city, taking the part of Gam-
ora in ‘*The Honeymoon,” and of
Portia in ‘*The Merchant of Venice.”
Three years afterwards she made
her professional debut as the Prince
of Wales, in Danl. EF. Bandmann’s
presentation of ‘‘Richard III.”
After playing three consecutive
seasons with Bandmann, Miss A.
went to ‘ng. and Germany, where
she stuar ‘ violin music and drama-
tic art. Her first success in N. Y.
was made at the Union Square
Theatre, in ‘‘The Black Masque.”
Mr. A. M. Palmer, recognizing her
ability and promise of future great-
ness, made her a mem. of his co.

With him she first took the part of

Jeanne in ‘*A Broken Seat”; Letty
Fletcher and Lady Windermere, in
‘*Lady Windermere’s Fan.” But
her greatest achievement was in
** Mercédes,” which Mr. Palmer
produced for her in 1893. She
terminated her engagement in Am.

Mary,” which she played with great
pathos and power. It was at this
time that Sir Augustus Harris made
her an offer to go to London. She
hal other offers from the same
quarter, none of which, however,
she accepted. Sir Hy. Irving was
more fortunate, and secured the
services of the young Can. by ten-
dering a definite
liberal terms for his London season
and for his Am. tour. She made
her London debut Feb. 1, 1895, and
throughout well sustained the repu-
tation she hal brought with her.
She played in roles next to Miss
Terry, and likewise in some of that
famous actist’s former parts. Her
renderipg of Rosamond in the drama
‘* A’ Beckett” was pronounced a
distinet triumph. In 1896 she
a deg Irving and Terry on
their Am, tour. and at the time of
writing (July, 1897), it is reported
that she is to return to Am. as a
**star.” Miss A. has written some
articles for the press on stage-land,
which have attracted attention.
She has likewise written some

she evinced great talent for composi-

published a novel: ‘‘Honor Edge-

which was full of promise and com-
manded a large sale, running into a
second ed. in the same year. This
was followed, some yrs. later, by a
second novel : ‘‘ The Doctor’s Daugh-

of social life and character at the
Can. capital. A long and trying
nervous illness put a stop to all liter-
ary work for the next 3 yrs. Since
then Miss B. has done what many
consider her best work, consisting of

articles and reviews on social and |

political questions and short stories.
She has been specially interested in
the subject of Irish industries. Some
of her articles have appeared in the
N. Y. Independent and in the N. Y.
Sun and some in the New Ireland

his s. was a mem., though he did
not enter on a professional career

| his ancestors having come from

Quebec Semy., he graduated LL.B.

until the formation of the Royal | at Laval Univ., and was called to

Can. Acarl., by the Marquis of

Lorne, 1880. For 7 yrs: he held the |

position of art dir. at Alma Coll.,
St. Thomas, Ont., and teacher of
drawing in the public schs, of Lon-
don, Ont. ; but finding that these
engrossed too much of his time, he
removed to Toronto, 1888, and soon
after decided to confine himself to

the bar, 1871. He has since prac-
tised his profession in Lévis and
Quebec. Apptd. a Q. C. by the
Marquis of Lansdowne, 1887, he
was one of the Crown counsel em-

|

jloyed in conducting proceedings

B. was ed. and prop. of L’ Echo de

painter he has achieved his greatest
success, but unfortunately very few
of his portraits have been publicly
exhibited, and it is, therefore, as a
painter ot landscapes that he is
most widely known. In his treat-
ment of the cloud-girt and mist-
enshrouded peaks and glaciers of
our Rocky Mts., he is considered to
have a »tyle particularly his own.
The rapi AP sera made by
this artist auring the past few yrs.
has been remarked by all who
take an interest in his field of
study. In 1894, he eclipsed all his
previous efforts in his ‘Lights of a

City Street.” Encouraged by the |
success of this picture, he de-|

termined on a still greater effort,
and the two canvasses depicting
incidents connected with the death
of Sir John Thompson, was the

result. For this purpose he visited |

Eng., where he obtained a personal
sitting from the Queen, an honour
never before accorded, we believe,
to any artist from this side of the
Atlantic, and to but three or four
living artists in the world. Mr.

B.-S. was elected a mem. of the}

Royal Can. Acad. of Arts, 1888, and

BLAKE, Hon. Edward, statesman,
| is the eld. s. of the late Hon. Wino
Hume Blake, a well-known Cara-
dian statesman, who afterwards be-
eamme Chancellor of U.C., now Qut,,
by Catherine Hume, his wife, grand.
idau. of Wm. Hume, of Humewood,
| M.P. for Wicklow in the Brit. Ho.
/of Commons, and is the grands, of
the Rev. Dominick Edward Blake
(of the ‘amily of Blake of Castle-
grove, Galway), in his lifetime ree-
tor of Kiltegan and of Lough Brick-
land, and R. D. B, at the present
village of Cairngorm, Ont., Oct. 13,
1833, he was ed. at U. C. Coll.
(Goy.-Genl.’s prizeman), and at the
Univ. of Toronto (B.A., and silver
med. in classics, 1854; M.A., 1858),
and was called to the bar, 1856.
| He entered into practice in the city
of Toronto, his first partner being
S. M. Jarvis. Later, he and his
| bro., Hon. 8. H. Blake, founded the
| firm which bears their name. Mr.
Adam records that Mr. B. has re-
mained always at the head of this
firm, ‘‘ and mainly through his
towering ability, it has become the
leading legal firm in Can., and has
for yrs. held that commanding posi-
'tion.” He was created a Q. C. by
| Viscount Monck, 1864; became a
| Bencher of the Law Soc., U. C.,
1871; and Treas. of the Law. Soc.,
| 1879. He was for a time one of the
examiners in, and a lecturer on,
| Equity Law for the Law Soc., and
was apptd. an hon, mem. of the
| Law Faculty, Toronto Univ., 1888.
| He declined appt. as Chancellor of
U. C, under the govt. of Sir John
| Macdonald, 1869, as Chief Justice

| tice of Ont., under that of Sir W.
| Laurier, 1897. Of late he has ap-
| peared frequently before the Judi-
| cial Comte. of the P. C, in Eng., his

that tribunal. His political career | of Commons, in place of the ex-
began in 1867, the epoch of Con-| Premier, whose health had become
ede. shi, He had erly espoused | impaired by his arduous official
the Lib. cause, and was often im-| labours. He remained in that posi-
portuned to enter Farlt. In the year | tion until after the g. e, of 1887,
mentioned he was elected both to the | when he retired and was succeeded
Ho, of Commons and the Legisla-| by Mr. Laurier. Subsequunt to that
ture: He was immediately offered event be took no prominent part
the leadership of his party in the either in the debates in the House,
latter body, but it was not till 1869 | or in the general work of his party.
that he consented to accept that! At the g. e, 1800, he declined re-

sition. On the defeat of the
Sandfield Macdonald Govt., Dec.,
1871 (an event largely due to his
efforts), Mr. B. was called upon to
form a new Admn., and succeeded
in the task. He himself took the
office of Presdt. of the Council with-
out salary. On the abolishment of
dual representation, some time later,
he resigned the Premiership with
the view of devoting the st of
his attention td Federal politics, and
was succeeded therein by Sir Oliver |
Mowat, who for 24 yrs. continued to |
fill that position, being in turn suc-
ceeded by the present local Reform
leader, Mr, ardy. Mr. B. may
therefore be regarded as the ‘‘Father”
of Lib. govt. in his native Province.
In the Ho. of Commons he was
urged to accept the leadership, but
declined the honour. He was, nev-
ertheless, one of the greatest cham-
pions in the well-remembered con.- |
test over the Pacific Scandal, which |
resulted in the downfall of Sir John
A. Macdonald, When Mr. Macken-
zie became Prime Minister of Can.,
Mr. B. accepted a- position in his
cabinet, without office. He was |
sworn of the Privy Council, Nov. 7,
1873. In Feb., 1874, he resigned |
owing to ill-health, In May, 1875,
he accepted office as Mr. of Justice,
and while such undertook an official |
mission to Eng., touching amend- |
ments to the law of extradition, ete.
He was mainly instrumental in per-
fecting the constitution of the Su- |
preme Ct, of Can, at its establish-
ment, and personally selected the |
judges first apptd. thereto, After |
the defeat of the Mackenzie Govt.
at the polls, 1878, he was chosen
leader of the Lib. party in the Ho,

nomination, and sent to his con-

| stituents in West Durham, a .etter,

expressing his views of the condition
and prospects of the country. This
letter was believed to be of tue
greatest importance, but it was not

ublished until after the elections.

Jhen the letter was made public, it
created a genuine sensation, for it
not only announced the great lead-
er’s retirement from political life, but
expressed the gravest forebodings
concerning the future of Can. ‘‘The
splendid oratory and brilliant genius
of Mr. B.,” says Mr. Adam, from
whose work of biography we have
taken some of the facke herein,
‘‘were keenly missed in Parlt., and
many were the ni expressed that
he would reconsider his determiria-
tion, and return to his rightful place
as leader of his party.” In June,
1892, these hopes were dispelled by
the acceptance by Mr, B. of an invi-
tation extended to him by the lead-

ers of the Irish parliamentary party,
| to accept a seat in the Brit. Ho. of

Commons. He landed in Irel. a
few weeks previous to the election
of 1892, and was received with great
cordiality. He stood for the con-
stituency of South Longford, being

/opposed by J. H. Miller, in the

Con, interest. At the close of the
e the vote stood: Hon. E. Blake,
., 2644; J. H. Miller, C., 347.

| His advent into Imp. politics was

made under the most auspicious cir-
cumstances, and fully justified the

| fondest hopes of his friends. At the

first dinner after the election of the
Kighty Club, the great Lib. fighting
organization, he was the guest of the
evening, and made a speech, which

} was’ widely commented upon, and

BLAKE. 89

highly eulogized as the clearest ex-
position of the policy of Home Rule
that had, un to that timo, been
heard. Since then he has continued
to distinguish himself in the cause
of Irel. In 1894 he war elected a
meni. of the Ex, Comte. of the Irish
Parliamentary parvy. In the same
year he was included in the Royal
Comn., apptd. to enquire into the
financial relations between Gt. Brit.
and Irel, This Comte, reported
that Irel. was bearing an unfair
share of taxation, and in 1897 Mr.
B. was selected to move an amend-
ment to the address in reply to the
Queen’s speech on the subject,
Later, he moved a substantive reso-
lution thereon, The London Daily
News, in commenting on his speech,
said that ‘‘ his argument lost noth-
ing by the moderation of his tone,
and gained much by the skill with
which it was marshalled, supported
by a multitude of facts and figures.
In spite of the mass of detail with

which the speech was weighted, he |

succeeded in commanding attention
to the last.” The speech occupied
more than two hours in its delivery.
In 1895 he was re-elected by accla-
mation for South Longford. In the
same year he went to New Zealand,

to serve as arbitrator between the |
New Zealand Govt. and the New |
Zealand Midland Ry. Co., and made |

his award in Dec., wholly in favour
of the Govt. In 1896 he was one of
the Comte. of 15 of the Ho. of
Commons, apptd. to investigate

South African affairs and the causes |
His cross |
examination of Cecil Rhodes has |
been spoken of as ‘‘a masterly piece |

of the Transvaal raid.

”

of work,” Mr. B. has been very suc-
cessful in obtaining funds for carrying
on the work of the Irish Parliament-
ary party, and has himself contribu-
ted largely thereto. To the election
fund of the McCarthyite wing of
the Nationalist party, 1895, his sub-
scription was £1,000. Mr. B. was
the first (and for 14 yrs. continu-
ously) Presdt. of the Toronto Genl.
Trusts Co, On his resignation of the
office, 1896, the other directors of

(the Co, presented the Ont. Legisla-

| ture with his portrait in oils, ‘to
| mark their esteem for him and their
‘appreciation of his services in some
| lasting way.” Throughout his ca
' reer, his interest in education—and
especially higher education — has
been most marked. In 1873 he was
,elected Chancellor of the Univ. of
Toronto. In 1888 he gave $2,500
|to found scholarships in Political
Science in that institution, and in
| 1891 he agreed to give $20,000 as a
fund towards endowing junior ma-
|triculation scholarships therein.
| After the destruction of the build-
|ings of the Univ. by fire, 1890, he
| gave largely to the rebuilding fund,
and did much otherwise to assist in
\the work of restoration. He re-
‘ceived the hon. degree of LL.D.,
|from his Alma Mater, 1889. He
| declined a K.C.M.G., for his public
iservices, 1876. He was a Aol. to
| the 38rd Commercia'’ Congress, Lon-
'don, 1893. Politically, he is now an
Ind. Lib. Atadinner given in his
honour in Toronto, it. 1894, he
called himself an ‘Irishman, and
an Imperialist, not in a jingo sense,
|} but an Imperialist in the fullest
/sense of the word, and with the
| belief that the destiny of the Brit.
Empire is to occupy the foremost
position as a civilizer and Christian-
izer throughout the whole world.”
Continuing, he said, ‘She looked
forward to the granting of Home
Rule to Irel. in the near future, and
thereafter to seeing systems of local
govt. established in all the great
historical and natural divisions of
Gt. Brit. with one Federal Parlt. in
control,” His portrait, painted by
| Grier, was exhibited at the Royal
Acad., London, 1895. Mr. B. is a

thousands of taadees on this conti

BOOTH, John Rudolphus, lumber
merchant aad railway promoter, |
was b. at Waterloo, P.Q., 1826, and
ed. there. Moving to Ottawa, 1857,
he saw the great possibilities of the
Chaudiere with its vast water power.
He built a small shingle mill on the
site of what was afterwards known
as Booth’s mammoth lumber mill.
In time he became one of the largest

limit owners in Can., as well as one |
of the most extensive manufacturers |

of lumber. He controlled 640,000 |

acres of timber, and cut an
nually at is mills from 25,000-
000 to 30,000,000 feet of lumber.
As an illustration of his foresight,
the Ottawa Journal has related that
during the prevalence of hard times
in 1874-76, when other lumber mer

chants, thinking the bottom had |

dropped out of the market and |
things were going to remain in that
condition, were disposing of their
limits by auction, Mr. B. was always
on hand to bid for them. ‘‘ He had |
faith in the country,” adds the Jowr-
nal, ** while they had xot, and now

8

| these limits are worth five times the
amount he paid for them, and this,
_ too, after he has cut all the logs off
‘them he required for his business.”
Owing to fires in his mills and yards,
Mr. B. has now almost entirely closed
| his lumber business at Ottawa, and
_is devoting mucn of his time to ry.
| construction and development. One
of his first works in this direction
was the building of a short line in
| the Temiscamingue region, where he
was a'so a promoter of the Temis-
|camingue Steamboat Co. In 1881
‘he threw himself into the work of
| building the Can. Atlantic road,
connecting Ottawa directly with
| Montreal and the New Eng. States.
| Since then he has texen up the Ot-
_tawa, Arnprior and Parry Sound
| Ry. scheme, and has carried it
| to completion as far as Georgian
| Bay. Of this scheme the Toronto
| Globe says: ‘‘It isa part of one of the
‘biggest enterprises which any pri-
| vate individual ever undertook on
this continent. Mr. B. aims at no less
| nan making the 0.A. and P. 8. Ry.
|the greatest avenue to the sea
‘of the North-western States and
| North-west of Can. To _ this
jend the mere laying of the
‘iron between Ottawa and_ the
| Georgian Bay, gigantic as the task
| was, 1s but a beginning. There are
| elevatcrs to be built, there are steam-
| Ships to be put on the lakes, agencies
|have to be established to divert
trade into the new route; in short,
Mr, B. has to reach out all over the
great lakes to make their business
| tvibutary to the Parry Sound road.
He is aiming at that, and will accom-
plish it if he lives long enough.” In
| connection with this scheme he pro-
poses establishing a sanitarium for
consurptives in Algonquin Park.
Mr. B. is Presdt. of both the Can.
Atlantic and Parry Sound Ry.
Cos. In Jan., 1897, he received
from the Ottawa Bd. of Trade an

tory and Eng. and in Metaph., for
several yrs. In 1873, he was om
to his present position, Prof. of Ch.
History and Apologetics in the
Presb. Coll., Montreal. A Can. writer
thus speaks of his literary and scien-
tific attainments: ‘‘ Prof. C, is an
indefatigable student. His private
studies are chiefly in the line of his-
tory, ethnol. and philology, includ-
ing paleography. And not only
has he distinguished himself, but we
may affirm with all safety that he
has few, if any, who are his supe-
riors in these departments. A\l-
though much of his time outside of
class work is occupied with these
subjects, his students suffer no loss
thereby ; the rather are their inter-
ests advanced, as his studies bear
directly upon the subjects which he
teaches. The results of his labor
have been given to the public chiefly
in the form of a large number of av-
ticles contributed, from time to
time, in the Brit. and Foreign Evan-
gelical Review; in The Princeton
Review ; in ‘The Trans. of the Can.
Inst.” ; in the ‘‘ Trans. of the Lit.
and Hist. Soc., Quebec’; in the Can.
Naturalist, and other publications.
Besides these, many essays, lectures,

tracted a good deal of attention, and
excited considerable comment in the
U.8., Eng.,and various parts of the
continent of Europe; and within
the lapse of a brief period we find
him in correspondence with a large
number of writers of the highest
scientific attainments from all parts
of the world. In order to show how
highly his labours have been appre-
ciated, it will suffice to name the vari-
ous learned socs. of which he has been
made amem. They are: The Can.
Inst., Toronto; the Celtic Soc.,
Montreal ; corres. mem. of the Lit.
and Hist. Soc., Quebec ; mem of the
Soc, of Biblical Archeology, Lon-
don ; hon. local secy. of the Victoria

hon mem, of the Lega Filellenica,
Turin ; and hon, corres, of the An-
juman-i-Punjab, Lahore. In addi-
tion to the honors we have named,
certain special distinctions have been
conferred upon him. He has re-
ceived from l’Inst, Ethnograph. de
Paris the insignia of delegue general
in gold and silver. The pone
medal of honour of the French Re-
public, decreed by them to service
in the cause of science, was awarded
to him; he has also received from
King Charles of Roumania the rib-
bon and medal cf the order of merit
of the Ist-class.” He is also a Fel-
low of the Royal Soc. of Can., and
received from his Alma Mater the
degree of LL.D., 1889. In 1895 he
was included in the Comn. apptd.
by the Ont. Govt. to enquire into
the then condition of the Univ. of
Toronto. A complete list of Prof.
C.’s writings is given in the ‘* Bibli- |
ography of the Royal Soc. of Can.” His
rincipal work is thought to be ‘*The

ittites, their Inscription and their |
History ” (Tor., 1890; 2 vols.). One |
of the latest of his public addresses |
was on the subject of ‘‘ The Perfect
Book and the Perfect Father.” It |
was in reference to certain state-

Prof. C. was tried for heresy before

CARRITTE, Miss Nita, vocalist,
was b. in Halifax, N.S., and is of

appearance in public was made at a
ch. concert in St. John, N.B., she
being then a child 5 yrs. old, and |
her first appearance in opera took
place in the same city when she was
14. On this latter occasion she
created the role of ‘‘ Patience” in Gil
bert & Sullivan’s opera of that name.
She first went to Paris to finish her
education. She then began vocal
study with Mad. Lagrange. She |
was her favourite pupil, and while
with her attracted the notice
of Gounod. Although she had no
intention of entering the musical
profession, and although her parents
endeavoured to dissuade her from so
doing, she was soon busy singing on
the concert platform in Paris. Sir
Augustus Harris paid a special visit
to Paris to hear her, and at once en-
gaged her tosingin Eng. She made
her first appearance there in opera
at Convent Garden as Michaela,
i890, and repeated the role till
the end of the season. She then
sang the principal prima donna
roles of grand opera with the
Carl Rosa Opera Co. Then she
had a good offer from Mr. Carte
to take Miss Palliser’s part in ‘The
Gondoliers,” but, after 3 months’
service at the Savoy, her voice
failed, and she was obliged to break
the 15 months’ engagement and get
back to France in order to recover.
When her voice returned she began
to study under Mad. Marchesi, and
received the benetit of Massenet’s
advice. She studied acting at the
Grand Opera, Paris, under the finest |
masters, made herself proficient in |
several languages, and diversified
her studies with lessons in dancing.
In 1893 she accepted an offer to join
Duffs Kng. Opera Co. in Am. She
sang the prima donna parts
in ‘** Faust,” ‘‘Cavalieria Rusti-
cana,” ‘* Pagliacci,” and ‘* Carmen,”

of much beyond the improved en-

trance examination. Mr. C. held
that the indoor service should be
managed on business principles by a
non-political comn., as in Eng., and

introduced a bill outlining his views.
The general principle involved was

settlers has been attracted. The
cultivation carried on is that of the

suitable. The establishment of an
agricultural college, similar to that
in Ontario, was also provided for in
the contracts with the Govts,
the stipulation having been inserted
at the suggestion of the firm, and in

CHARLTON, John, statesman,
bro, of the preceding, was b. at
‘* Wheatlands,” near Caledonia,
N.Y., Feb. 3, 1829. Ed. at the Me-
Laren Grammar Sch., of Caledonia,
and at Springville Acad., N.Y., he
spent one year as a clk. in a country
store in Ellicottville, N.Y., after-
wards read law, and also tried his
hand at newspaper work in the same
place. Removing to Can. with his
arents, 1849, he gave himself up to
arm life for a time, working for 4
yrs. on his father’s farm, near the
village of Ayr, Tp. of Dumfries. In
1853 he went to Lynedoch, where he
opened a genl. country store, in
company with Geo. Gray. In 1859
he was placed in charge of the Can.
business of the extensive lumber
firm of Smith & Westover, of Tona-

sit for North Norfolk in the Ho. of
Commons, at the g. e. 1872. He
has coutinued to hold the seat up to
the present time, his majority at the
last g. e. over Wm. McGuire, his
Con, opponent, being 544. Mr. C.
has not always been in complete
accord with his party. He advised
an increase of duties, in 1876, from
174 to 20 or 22 per cent. to provide
for deficiency in revenue and to
satisfy the demands of the protec-
tionist element of the Lib. party.
He voted against his party leader
and with the Macdonald Govt. on
the Riel question, and he was one of
the ‘‘ Noble 13” who supported Col.
O’Brien’s resolution in opposition to
the Jesuit Estates bill. fe is prob-
ably best known as a public man as
the promoter of moral legislation.
For many yrs. he wrought in Parlt.
for the passage of a law affordin

protection to women and girls, anc

at last succeeded in securing the
adoption of ‘‘The Charlton Act,”
which made the seduction of a girl
under 16 yrs. of age a penal offence ;
the seduction of a girl between the
age of 16 and 18 under promise of
marriage, a penal offence ; and which
provided other salutary safeguards
on the same lines. He also took up
the subject of the better observance
of the Lerd’s Day, believing that
while the law cannot properly re-
quire men to go to ch. or obey divine
commands in respect to religious
observances, it can and should pro-
vide that men should be secured in
the right to go to ch., and have
respect for religious duties if they
desire to do so, and that any legis-
lation calculated to secure rights of
conscience and religious liberty is
not only proper but desirable. After
three sessions, his bill, with many
modifications, was adopted in the

CHARLTON,

Commons, 1894, but it failed to
command a majority in the Senate.
Mr. Charlton considers rest from
labour on Sunday a civil right, and
bases the advocacy of the bill upon
that assumption, and upon the
further assumption that the State
may properly seek by legislation to
promote the moral, et ba and
intellectual interests of the people,
and take measures to secure the
stability of its institutions by put-
ting influences into operation that
will improve the moral standard
and the general character of its
citizens. Among the provisions of
the bill is one prenng the publi-
cation and sale of Sunday papers.
He was one of the founders of the
Dom. Lord’s Day Alliance, having
for its purpose the securing of the
better observance of the Lord’s Day,
organized in 1888, and held office
therein as V.-P., and he has repeat-
edly received the thanks of various
ch, authorities for his efforts to pro-
mote the aims and objects of that
Mr. C. has great

important body.
faith in the future of his adopted
country, and aims to make of it a

model Christian nation. In a speech
lately delivered in Toronto he called
upon his auditors to assist in the
work of laying the foundation of
Canada’s welfare in justice, and to
build up the superstructure in hon-
esty and truth; to believe in its
possibilities and labour for its future,
and to consecrate the high privileges
of citizenship to the cause of patriot-
ism, to enmity of political baseness
and corruption, and to lofty and
pure political ideals. He believes
that our position on the Am. con-
tinent renders the cultivation of
friendly political and commercial
relations with the U. 8. of prime
importance, not only to ourselves
but to Gt. Brit. as well. He is in
favour of the reduction of custom
duties te the lowest point consistent
with securing revenue for necessary
requirements; of the Govt. being
economically administered ; and he
believes that extensive reciprocity
of trade with the U. 8., whereby

ing and lumbering interests of Can.,
and make this country a participant
in the numberless advaitanen con.
ferred upon the various States of
the Am. Union by the system of
absolute free trade that exists be-
tween those commonwealths. He
also favours strict regard on the
part of the Dom. Govt. for provl.
rights and provl. autonomy, and a
careful avoidance of interference
with provl. legislation enacted with-
in the limits of the constitutional
rights of the Province. He was
apptd. chairman of the Ont. Royal
Mining Comn., 1888, and in the
prosecution of his duties as such he
visited the mineral regions of Ont.,
as well as the principal mining
centres of the U. 8S. He again
visited the U. S. early in 1897 for
the purpose of sounding public
opinion at Washington regarding
more extended wade relations be-
tween the two countries, and of
seeking to impress Am. statesmen
with the advantages that a re¢ipro-
city treaty, based upon fair and
equitable conditions, would confer
upon both countries. He is a news-
paper and mag. writer of extensive
experience, and is the author of
many popular lectures on political,
literary and historical subjects. In
religious faith, he is an adherent of
Presb, Ch., and in 1896 was
sent as a del. from Can. to the Pan-
Presb. Conf., sitting at Glasgow.

This petition has been repeated

herself free. She believes that
‘righteousness exalteth a nation,”
but that no nation or state has its
foundations in righteousness which
excludes the best hal? of its citizens
from a voice in its Govt, She also
believes in the ‘‘single tax,” the
legal prohibition of the liquor traffic

tlement of national difficulties by
arbitration, and in co-operation as

portent of his undertakings was the |
reopening in 1896, of Regiopolis
Coll., Kingston, for the purpose of
supplying the diocese with a native
Canadian clergy, and for the educa-
tion of Cath. boys for the liberal |
professions. He contributed $5,000
from his private purse towards a
scholarship fund for this institution.
In all, he has during the period of |
his Episcopate, given no less a sum
than 350,000 for religious purposes
in his diocese. In 1894 he erected |

which has been of considerable
service to him in his journeyings
in foreign lands. Although he has
published no | »ok, Mr. C. is prob-
ably better kn wn to the people of
Ont. by his wiitings than many of
our voluminous authors. His con-
tributions to literature have so far
taken the form of historical sketches,
critical essays, and notes of travel,
nearly all of which have appeared,
from time to time, in the Toronto
Globe. Among these may be
specially mentioned, notes of a
camping journey of 550 miles
through the Holy Land; sketches
of the War of 1812; and articles on
the Canadian poets; on Man. and
tk | N.-W.; on early settlers in Ont. ;
and on the experiences of the
refugees from Mass. in the last cen-
tury. No doubt a collection of his

consolidated ; the number of profes-
sors and teachers has been nearly
doubled, and, thanks to the munifi-
cence of Sir D. A. Smith, the late
‘John H. R. Molson, and other
friends of the Faculty, endowments
amounting in the aggregate to up-
wards of $184,000 have been added
to its capital. During the same
period aiso cne Royal Victoria Hos-
pital has been erected and opened for
the reception of patients ; and the
idoateeat Genl. Hospital has been
remodelled and practically rebuilt.
| With all of these changes Dr. C. has
been more or less actively identified,
and, notwithstanding the increased
| tax upon the students both in time
}and money, the gratifying result is
| to be seen in the great increase in
| thei: number, from 283, in 1889, to
14 ‘n 1896. In 1896 he was apptd.
Jonsulting Physician to the Royal
| Victoria Hospital. In 1895 his
| Univ. conferred upon Dr. C. the
| hon. degree of LL. D., for the follow-
|ing reasons, as taken from the
|records of the Univ.: ‘ Because of

/as an eminently successful teacher,

jand this Province, his valuable ser-

in advancing med. education, espe- |
cially in this Univ. and this Pro- |
vince for a tong term of years.” Dr, |
C, has not been a voluminous writer |
on med, subjects. He is better |
known as a teacher and lecturer,
and by his addresses at coll. and |
hospital openings and other semi- |
public occasions. His style is de-|
scribed as fercible and clear rather |
than fluent, and when thoroughly in
earnest in advocating a cause or a |
reform, he rarely fails of success, |
His graduation thesis, written in |
1854, while he was still an under- |
graduate, attracted much attention,
and was published in extenso in the
Sept. number of the Montreal Med. |
Chronicle of that year. In it he was, |
so far as known, the first writer to |
claim for the class of infectious dis-
eases an origin in a specific cell or
germ for each disease, using convin-
cing arguments in support of his
opinion, predicting with confidence
the early discovery of these specific
germs, and pointing out the direc-
tion in which the search would pro-
bably be successful, The now uni-
versally accepted germ theory of |
infectious diseases has so completely
verified these predictions, that his
forecasts of 42 yrs. ago seem almost |
like sg ap inspirations. In_ his |
busy life, and more particularly |
during the last 20 yrs., he has |
found time to be an enthusiastic |
farmer, fox-hunter and breeder of |
fine stock, His fine herd of Polled
Angus cattle has never been excelled
in this country, and won many
prizes at the World’s Fair, Chicago,
1893. Thoroughbred horses of his
breeding have ‘been among the best
in Can. He has won more than one
Queen’s Plate, and the Hunt Cup of |
1887, and other trophies, are familiar |
objects in his dining-room. ‘‘ Craik

house and farm, is on the northern

‘and has since resided in Toronto,
In early yrs. she wrote little stories
and hymns for the home circle, and
| sent various competitive pieces, in
prose and verse, to the popular
| family periodicals of the day. On
the founding of the Can. Monthly,
by Prof. Goldwin Smith, 1872, her
| attention was drawn to Can. Lit-

mag. several papers of a simple
character, as also a little ve.<«o.

|in the status of woman, she took up
| the question of a woman’s right to
all Coll. and Univ. privileges in Arts,
| Science and Med.,and as a mem. of
the then Toronto Woman’s Literary
; Club, contributed industriously to
the discussions thereon in the daily

|cate of Woman Suffrage, writing in
| Support of it in Can., Eng. and Am.
newspapers, and editing a woman’s
page on the same lines in the Canada
| Citizen (Toronto), For two yrs. she
| was sub.-ed. of that paper. Not
finding it convenient to assume
| regular press duties, Mrs. C.’s lit-
erary work has continued in its old
form of occasional contributions of

he entered the Royal Sch. of Mines, |
London, taking its full course of
study, extending over 3 yrs., and
passed as an associate, being first in

Geologist and Botanist to H. M,’s
North American Boundary Comn.,
engaged in fixing the boundary line
from the Lake of the Woods to the |

his labours on the boundary survey,
he was apptd., July, 1875, to the
staff of the Geol. Survey of the Dom.
He became Asst. Dir. July, 1883, and
Dir. and Depty. Head of the Dept.
of the Geol. Survey, Jan. 1, 1895.
While attending the Sch. of Mines,
he devoted special attention to Geol.

Ramsay, Huxley and Etheridge ; and
to Chemistry and Metal., in the
laboratories of Frankland and Percy

| His work on the Geol, Survey has
| been chiefly in B.C. andthe N. W.T.,

boat journey of 1,300 miles, with one
portage of 50 miles, from the basin

he spent the summer of 1892 in the
Behring Sea region, for the purpose
of inquiring into the conditions and
facts of seal life. The report of the

his appt. as Principal of MeGill, one
of the great drawbacks to the success
of the Univ. was the want of efficient
and superior schs. to prepare pupils

he secured, in 1857, the establish
ment of the McGill Normal Sch., for
the training of Prot. sch. teachers.

| He became Principal of the sch. , and

N.S., finished his collegiate course |
in 1846, and returned home, having |

already contributed something of
importance to the geol. knowledge
f his province. In 1850 he was
apptd Supt. of Education for N. 8.,
an office which he held for 3 yrs.
He had already made himself promi

papers, reports and lectures, on a

variety of subjects, characterized |

by original and valuable research.

another paper on the newer coal
formation. In 1845, he published a
paper on the coal formation plants
of N. 8., and explored the London

derry mines. During the winter of
1846-7, while studying in Edin- |
burgh, he contributed papers to the
Royal Soc, of that city on the
‘Occurrence of Gypsum” and on
the ‘‘ Boulder Formation,” and an
article to Jameson’s Hdinburgh Phil.
Journal on the ‘* Renewal of For-
ests Destroyed by Fire.” The most
important of his other memoirs are ;
‘On the Triassic Red Sandstone |
of N.S. and P. E. L,” ‘On the
Colouring Matters of Red Sand
stone,’ and on ‘* The Metamorphie
tocks of N. 8.” It was during
his trip to the Joggins with. Sir |
Chas. Lyell that the remains of
Dendrerpeton Acadianum and Pupa
vetusta were found, the former the
first reptile found in the coal for
mation, and the latter the first |
known paleozvie land snail. These |
were followed by other discoveries
of the first carboniferous millipede.
During the summer of 1858 he made
a tour of Lake Superior, and made
an elaborate report on the copper
regions of Georgian Bay and Mai
manse, in which he discussed the
geol. relations of the then little
known copper-bearing rocks of the
north shore of Lake Superior, and
the origin of deposits uf native cop-
per. About 1860, he enlarged and
revised his book on ‘ Acadian Geol
ogy,” which is a complete account
up to date of the geol. formation
of the maritime provinces of the
Dom. <A second edition, published
in 1868, and illustrated, still re-
mains a standard work in geol. for
this part of the Dom. Some $
yrs. later appeared ‘‘Archaia, o1
Studies of Creation in Genesis,” in
which the author shows himself to
be not only an accurate scientist, |
but a profound and reverent student |
of the Bible. This wo... was after
ward re-written and modernized,
and published in 1877, under the
title of “The Origin of the World.” |
In 1868 he published “ Air Breath- |

ers of the Coal Period”—the col
lected result of many years’ study
devoted to the fossil reptiles and
other land animals of the coal of
N. 8S. A year later he discovered
the now celebrated ‘‘ Hozoon Can
adense”’-——the only animal remains
in the Laurentian rocks, which
had hitherto been considered azoic.
In 1865 Dr. D. lectured before the
Brit. Assn. at Birmingham; and in
1870 before the Royal Inst. and
Geol. Soc. In the latter year ap-
peared ‘* Hand-Book of Canadian
Zoology”; and in 1872 ‘‘ Notes on
the Post-Pliocene of Canada,” which

jraised the number of species of

known post-pliocene fossils from 30
to over 200. In the meantime he
had been continually occupied in
the management of his Univ. and

| of the Prot. Normal Sch., both re-

quiring his constant attention and
the best of his labour, not only as a
principal, but as a lecturer. In
1870 he withdrew from his active
duties in the Normal Sch.,_ still,
however, remaining chairman of its
managing comte. His later works
have been of a general and com
prehensive character and very valu
able. ‘The Story of Earth and
Man” is a popular view of the
whole of the geol. ages; ‘‘ Science

|of the Bible” and ‘The Dawn of

Life,” an illustrated work on Hozoon
and other ancient fossils, ‘‘ The
Chain of Life,” ‘The Origin of the
World,” ‘‘Sahent Points in the
Science of the Earth,” ‘Science in
Bible Lands,” ‘‘ The Meeting Place
of Geology and History,” ‘The
Historical Deluge,” ‘‘ Eden Lost and

|Won,” and ‘Ethics of Primeval

Life,” are all of them profound and
interesting works, open to the
general reader as much as to the
scientist. In 188] he was awarded

There was a considerable period of time
when Prof. Dawson’s special distinction
among geologists was partly derived from
his maintenance of a religious view of his
science rather than of the rationalistic or
agnostic view which found favour in well

recognized as the leader of the

and as a steadfast opponent of in- |

held a convention at Pittsburg for
the purpose of defining the princi-

sermon upon the occasion led a |

portion of the ordinary press to de

he was chosen ed. of the Christian
Guardian, the principal organ of the
Meth. Ch. in Can., and continued to
hold that position up to Sept., 1804.
Since then he has occupied a super-
annuated relation. Throughout his
long career Dr, D. (he received the
degree of D.D. from Victoria Univ.,
1879) has rendered important ond
valuable services to his Ch. and
country. In 1873 he was elected, in
conjunction with the late Rev. Dr.
Nelles, to arrange with the parent
conf. in Eng. terms of settlement
arising from the union of the Wesl.
Meth., New Connexion and chs. of
the Eastern Brit. Am., Conf. In
1881 he was a mem, of the great
Ecumenical Meth. Conf. in London,
and also of a similar conf. held in
Washington, 1891, He advocated a
new hymn book, and took a leading
part in compiling and editing the
same, his poetical taste being of
especial value. He has alwa;’s been
an ardent prohibitionist, and in 1880
was elected Presdt. of the Ont.
branch of the Dom. Alliance. He is
stilla mem. of the Ex. Comte. of
that body. Two yrs. afterwards he
became Presdt. of the Toronto Conf.
In 1889 he was chosen Presdt. of
the Can. Press. Assn. He strongly
advocated Meth. Union in the Guar-
dian, and though dissenting from
some provisions in the basis, has
heartily and loyally laboured to
make the union a success. Believ-
ing that the cause of higher educa-
tion in the Meth. Ch. and through-
out the country would be benefited
by the federation of Victoria Univ.
with the Univ. of Toronto, he
strongly advocated that union, in
season and out of season. His first
literary attempt of importance was
an essay against the use of tobacco
by Christians, which won for him
a gold watch against a number of
competitors. He has at different
periods published volumes and pam-
sedi some of which are: ‘‘'The

rue Church,” ‘‘ Broken Reeds,”
*‘Way Marks,” ‘Priestly Preten-
sions Disproved,” ‘‘Spurious Cath-
olicity,” ‘* The Development of Doc-

trine,” ‘* Jesus the Messiah,” ‘‘ Storm
Signals,” ‘‘ Misleading Lights,” and
‘* Living Epistles.” He edited a
volume entitled, ‘‘Selections from
Canadian Poets,” and, subsequently,
published ‘Songs of Life,” being
a collection of original verse. Dr.

to lay out the town of New West- |
minster. For many yrs. subsequent |
to the completion of this work, he
was employed in a_ professional
capacity, devoting much of his time
to the exploration of those portions
of the Province which were at that
time comparatively little known.
Almost from the time of his arrival
he took an active interest in public
affairs; he became a leader among
the people, and in 1869, without
his knowledge or solicitation, was
elected to the Legislature. In 1872,
after the entry of the Province into
the Dom., he was returned to the
Ho. of Commons. He sat there as
a supporte. of Sir John Macdonald,
being one of his ‘Old Guard” during |
the 5 yrs. he was in opposition, up
to 1879. Inthe early part of that |
year he was apptd. Indian Comnr. |
for the N.W.T. In Dec., 1881, he
was apptd. Lt.-Goy. of the North-
West, and held the office conjointly
with that of Indian Comnr. until |
called to the Cabinet, as Mr. of the |
Interior and Supdt. of Indian Affairs,
in succession to the late Hon. Thos,
White, Aug. 3, 1885. It was during
his stay in the N. W. T. that the
Riel Rebellion, 1885, occurred, and
it has been stated by one or more of
his biographers that his personal
influence over certain of the Indian
tribes, at that momentous period,
held them in check and made them |
strong allies of the Federal Govt.
After Sir John Macdonald’s death,
he was continued in office under Sir |
John Abbott, up to Oct. 16, 1892, |
when he retired from the Cabinet.
In Nov. following, he was apptd.

declined to subscribe to the Quebec
resolutions, on the ground that the
financial terms were inadequate to

insufficient subsidies. When this
objection was partly rermoved by
the substantial additional subsidies
conceded at the London Conf., 1866,
he voted in the Legislatare for Con-
federation, trusting to get ‘‘ better
terms” afterwards, which were

Centre, g. e. 1886, for the legisla-
ture. He was raised to the Bench
as a Puisne Judge 8. C., P. Q., Oct.
19, 1891. In Oct., 1894, he delivered
judgment in the cause célébre of the
Canada Revue Pub. Co, against
Archbp. Fabre, of Montreal. This
case was an action brought by the
proprietors of’ a newspaper against
the R, C. Archbp. of Montreal for the
recovery of damages caused by the
issue of a circular forbidding the
mems. of the Ch. to read or support
the plaintiffs’ newspaper under pain
of deprivation of the sacraments.
Of Tedue D.’s judgment dismissing
the action—which has since been
confirmed by the Ct. of Review—the
Legal News (Mch. 15, 1895) said:
‘*This case is an interesting and
important addition to the jurispru-
dence on the subject of religious de-
nominations in this province... .Mr.
Justice Doherty’s treatment of the
question is extremely able, and ap-
plying but one, though not an unim-
portant, test to the judgment, it
may be said that there is not a
re position taken by the learned
judge in laying down the principles
of law which serve as the basis of
the decision, to which an enlightened
mem. of any religious denomination,
be he Roman Catholic or Anglican,
Presbyterian or Methodist, Congre
gationalist or Jew, can reasonably
take exception......The absolute
equality before the law of all reli-
gious denominations in this province,
is clearly recognized throughout the
judgment, and their right to main-
tain discipline among their members
is distinctly asserted. The limita-
tions are that the rules must be con-
sistent with the law of the land, and
that the tribunal or duly constituted

authority of the body must not act |

in an unfair or malicious manner.

It may be added, that the authorities
cited by the Court are exceedingly
apposite, and show that the decision
is in harmony with English juris-
prudence,” His Lordship was apptd.

(B.A., 1860; M.A., 1867,) where
he is also senior representative
Fellow in Arts, he acquired his
business training under his father,
and succeeded him in the man.
agement of the Montreal Dai/y and

eekly Witness, on the departure
of the latter for N. Y., 1870.
He was for some time a /usiness
partner of his father, and is still a
mem. of the firm of John Dougall
& Son, though now the sole owner
and publisher of the Witness. ‘‘ Per
haps,” ae be the Ottawa Journal,
‘‘one hardly goes too far in saying
that no other newspaper in this
country, even it may be on this
continent, has been conducted from
the beginning with more resolute
honesty, independence, and desire
to be just and right than the Mont-
real 'Vitness, The success of the
paper is an evidence of the fact, that
character counts for success in
journalism. The paper has always
refused advertisements of theatres,
hotels, operas, lotteries, doubtful
medical schemes, and other an-
nouncements which usually pay
well. In its career it has been ex-
communicated, or at least placed
under the ban, by the R. ©. Ch.
Most dangerous of all, there has
been in competition in Montreal
with the Witness for 25 yrs. another
evening journal, probably as shrewd
and well managed a newspaper en-
terprise as there is in Can, Never-
theless, the Witness has prospered
steadily, nor is it too much to say
that the mainspring of its prosperity
has been gablis confidence in_ its
motives and character.” Like his
father, Mr. D. has been prominently
identified with the Temp. cause,
and has been for wivarns yrs. the
V.-P. for Quebec of the Dom. Alli-
ance and Presdt. of the Quebec
branch of the Dom. Alliance. He
was also a mem. of the business
Comte. of the National Prohibition
Convention, 1894. He is a V.-P.
of the Montreal branch of the

Montreal Dispensary, and is closely
connected with other local socs, and

institutions, including the Citizen’s
League, organized for the promotion
of good govt. in the administration
of municipal affairs. Mr. D., politi-
cally, is an Ind, Lib.; in religious be-

DOUGALL, Miss Lily, author, sister
of the preceding, was b. at Ivy Cot-
tage, Oper Drummond St., Mont-

Montreal, and her girlhood in N.Y,
Of late yrs, she has travelled much,
living occasionally at Edinburgh, in
Scot., or in Derbyshire and other

tions of Eng. When at Chelten-

am, 1888, she met Miss M. 8. Karp,
of Melbourne, Derbyshire, who has
since helped her in her literary
work. Can, usually furnishes the
background for her tales. Of these
the best known are: ‘‘ Beggars All”
(1891), ** What Necessity Knows”
(1863), ‘The Mermaid; a Love
Tale” (1895), ‘‘The Zeist Geist”
(do.), ** A Question of Faith” (do.),
and ‘‘The Madonna of a Day”
(1896). The latter appeared + sin-
ally in Temple Bar. All her books
have been well received by the
press and public, and she may be
now regarded as one of the popular
novelists of the day, ‘‘ Beggars
All” has been pronounced by the
Academy as the most startlingly
original story that has been , ab-
lished within recent yrs. ‘‘ The
Mermaid” is said to take rank
with Crockett’s ‘‘ Lilac Sunbonnet,”
while ‘‘ The Madonna of a Day” is
said to be unequalled as a picture
of the ‘‘New Woman,”—é6?7 Braid

DOUGHTY, Arthur George, poet and
essayist, was b. at Maidenhead, Eng.,
Mch. 22, 1860, and ed. at Lord Eldon
Sch,, London, at New Inn Hall, Ox-
ford, and at Dickinson Coll., Car-
lisle (M.A., 1890). He was at one
time, with a view of entering the

280

Ch., associated with All Hallows’

Missior ‘hwark, London, 8.&.,
under th. Kev. Geo. Berkeley and
the Sisters of St. John Baptist,
Clewes. Since his residence in
Montreal he has been engaged in
literary work, especially in musical
and dramatic criticism, besides con-
tributing occasional short stories and

ems to the local press. He pub-
ished, 1837, a shorthand version of
Tennyson’s ‘‘In Memoriam,” and in
1889 an elaborate edition of the
‘* Idylis of the King,” in shorthand,
illustrated with 7 original drawings
by H. Sandham, R.C.A. This work
was sold for $10 per copy, and
obtained a silver medal at Jamaica,
1891. In 1893 he published, through
the Chiswick Press, London, a
volume eutitled, ‘‘ Tennyson, his
Life and Works,” containing a bio-
soul ui sketch, an analysis of ‘‘ In

emorain.,” the ‘‘Idylis of the
ining,” and ‘‘The Foresters,” to-
gether with a short review of the
** Death of Ginone. In 1894 he
wrote the libretto of the comic
opera ‘* Bonnie Prince Charlie,” the
music of which was composed by R.
F. Liebich, and produced at the
Queen’s Theatre, Montreal, May 26,
1894, 8 performances being given.
In June, 1894, he published, through
the Chiswick Press, a volume of
simple verse entitled, ‘‘ Rose
Leaves,” and in 1896 he published,
beautifully illustrated, the Song
Story of Wianndion and Beatrice.”

He has also published several songs |

in conjunction with M. Liebich, the
latest being a lullaby in honour of the
birth of a son to the Duke of York,
Jure 23, 1894. It may be added,
that the lines on Sir John Macdonald,
read on the occasion of the unveiling
of the Montreal monument to that
statesman, June 6, 1895, were writ-

DRUMMOND, Hon. George Alex-

was b. in Edinburgh, Scot., 1829.
He was ed. at Edinburgh High Sch.
and Univ., and came to Can., 1854,
for the purpose of assuming the
practical and technical management
of the extensive sugar refinery then
established in Montreal by the late
John Redpath. The enterprise was
a rege venture from the first,
but had to be closed down in 1874,
owing to the tariff changes of the
Mackenzie govt. Before resuming
operations in 1879—in which year
Mr. D. founded the Can. Sugar
Refining Co., of which he became
Presdt.,—he spent 5 yrs. abroad in
travel, study and recreation. He
became a dir. of. the Bank of Mont-

veloping the coal and iron mipes at
Londonderry, N.S., and is connected

civic authorities towards securing
the municipal well-being of the city.
Mr. D. is a mem. of the Presb. Ch.,
and has been twice m., Ist, 1857, to
Helen, dau. of the late John Red-
path (she d.); and 2ndly, 1884, to
Grace Julia, relict of the late Geo.
Hamilton, and dau. of the late A.
Davidson Parker, Montreal. Some
yrs. ago Mr. D. founded the Home

been closely connected with various
other benevolent undertakings, is a
dir. of the Women’s Hist. Soc., and
was the first Presdt. of the Mont-
real branch of the Women’s National
Council of Can., presided over by
the Countess of Aberdeen. In Up-
ward and Onward, Oct., 1896, the
Countess of Aberdeen pays this
tribute to Mrs. D.: ‘‘ Amongst the
many able women in Canada who
are inspiring their sisters, there is
none who comes before Mrs. George
Drummond, wife of Senator Drum-
mond, of Montreal. She has been
the President of the Montreal Local
Council from its foundation, and her
voice is ever eagerly listened to both
in the national and local councils.
She unites with a most distinguished
presence and great personal charm
gifts of rare eloquence and the power
of clothing her thoughts in most ex-
pressive language. She has read
much, and her conclusions are the
result of long and earnest reasoning,
and yet she is possessed with burn-
ing enthusiasm for all that is true,
and just and beautiful, and a con-
suming hatred for unrighteousness in
every form. But with all these en-
dowments she is most essentially
first and foremost a home woman,
and one who will never lend the
weight of her influence to any move-

‘ment which will tend to make

diocese he had previously done 6
months of clerical duty. Ordained
to the diaconate, he returned to
Mass., and for the summer took
charge of St. Paul’s Ch., Stock-
bridge, the rector being absent in
Europe. From Stockbridge he went
to N. Y. city, was apet. rector’s
asst, to the Rev, Dr. Rylance, at old
St. Mark’s-in-the-Bowery, and in
Apl., 1885, at Christ Ch., 5th Av.,
received priest’s orders from the Rt.
Rev. H. C. Potter, D.D., Bp. of
N. Y. Late in the spring he ac-
cepted a call to a new parish at
Chestnut Hill, Mass., the most ex-
clusive suburb of Boston, and in this
position remained for over a year,
when, being unable longer to endure
the Boston climate, he returned to |
N. Y., where he gave himself ener-
deme to literary work, taking
Sunday duty, however, constantly,
in important parishes in or near the
city. About this time a new im-
pulse was given, chiefly by Harvard
Coll., to the teaching of Eng. in pre-

paratory schs., and Mr. E., who had

always had much enthusiasm for
Eng. study, and who had already
become known as a writer, was re-
quested by Dr, A. H. Cutler, the
head of the most important private
sch, in N. Y., to take charge, in|
advanced Eng., of the boys in his |
sch. who were about to enter the |
various colleges, especially Harvard. |
So successful has Mr. E. been in this
work, and so strongly attached has
he become to the sch., that he has |
continued his connection with it to |
the present time, gradually assum-
ing the direction of the whole Eng.
dept., which he has quite re-organ-
ized. In Ch. work 2 likewise con-
tinues to be deeply interested ; his
ability as a preacher is freely recog-
nized, his sermons being said to show |
much of the poet’s penetration of |
character and life, as well as insight |
into the truth at the heart of all |
dogma. Much of Mr. E.’s most |
laborious and most lasting work |
has been done in the field of litera- |
ture. From the outset of his career |
he has written much for newspapers |

and periodicals, and long before any
published volume of his had been
~ to the world, he had been

nown as the author of prose articles
and poems of merit. <A careful stu-
dentof religion, having thought deep
ly from his boyhood, it is not strange
that his first published book should
be a volume of connected theol.
essays. This book, known as ‘‘ The
Heart of the Creeds; Historical
Religion in the Light of Modern
Thought,” was first published, 1888,
and at once gave the author a fore-
most place among the young reli-
gious thinkers of the country. From
such men in the Ep. Ch. as the late
Bp. Phillips Brooks it received high
commendation, and it now ranks as
a standard book in Broad Ch. popu-
lar theol. The Eng. of the book
was regarded as especially fine, and
was praised unstintedly by literary
critics like E.C. Stedman. Mr. E.’s
second published work was a volume
of poems, entitled ‘‘ Acadian Legends
and Lyrics,” which showed a wide
range of poetical feeling, and a fine
control of musical speech. The book
contains some legendary poems of
interest, and many beautiful lyrics,
and has had a steady sale. This
volume, which first appeared, 1889,
was followed, 1890, by a little book
on letter writing ; in 1891, bya valu-
able historical work, known as ‘‘ The
Church of England in Nova Scotia,
and the Tory Clergy of the Revolu-
tion,” and in 1892, by a volume of
short stories, ‘‘ Tales of a Garrison
Town,” collaborated with C. L.
Betts (q.v.). Mr. E.’s poems have
gone into several anthologies, like
‘Poets of the Great Dominion,”
‘*Younger American Poets,” and
‘*Poems of Wild Life.” In his in.
troduction to ‘‘ Younger Ameri
can Poets,” Douglas Sladen says :
‘Raton, I think, has been the most
happy of the Canadians in treating
their national legends. There are
few writers in the U.S. who equal
him in this respect. This volume,

E.’s name is to be found in Sted- |
man’s ‘* Library of American Liter- |
ature,” though only in a subordinate |
way. Asketch of his life is there |
given, and he is represented by one |
or two of his poems. The reason for
his not hay hag a more prominent
place is that he is a Can. by birth,
and that, although most of his life
has been spent, and all his work |
done, in the U. 8., Can. literature |
claims him. A great deal of his |
leisure time has been spent by Mr. |
E. on local history and genealogy. |
In the fivld of family history he has
been known as one of the most
patient and accurate students in the |
U. 8., and in this dept. he hay pub- |
lished much, both in book form and |
in periodicals. He has been a mem,
of both the New Eng. and N. Y.
Genealogical Societies, and at one
time he held the honorary office in |
the N. Y. Soe. of ‘Registrar of Pedi- |
grees.” In private life Mr. KE. is|
favourably known. He has unusual
yersonal magnetism, and his life in
N. Y., and indeed his whole life, |
has been singularly rich in friend-
ships. In the social and literary
world of N. Y. he holds a prominent
place; with many of the leading |
Am. authors he is on terms of close
friendship, and his acquaintance in
the ministry of his Ch. is naturally |
very large. He has never m. It is |

works, a ‘‘ History of the People of

an Englishman who came to Can.
about 15 yrs. ago. He received his
primary ed. in schs. in his native
town, and afterward attended the
Christian Biblical Inst., Stamford-

the first year being preparatory to
his regular theol. course. His first
pastorate was in the Christian Ch.,

EWAN, John Alexander, journal
ist, is the s. of Peter Ewan, by his
wife, Margt. Stuart Smith. B. in
Aberdeen, Scot., Feb. 15, 1854, he
accompanied his parents to Can, at
an early age, and completed his edu-
cation in Aavante, He received his
first lessons in the art of printing in
the same city, having learned to
‘set type” in the Globe office. In
1879, he joined the ad grb staff of
that paper, and acted subsequently
as its resident correspondent at
Ottawa, the Federal capital. On
leaving Ottawa, he became an edi
torial writer on the Toronto World.
He is now on the editorial staff of
his first love, the Globe, and is re-
garded everywhere as one of the
ablest and most accomplished jour
nalists employed on the Can. press.
One example of his style of work
was given in the exhaustive sketch
of Sir John Thompson’s career, which
appeared in the Globe the morning
after that statesman’s death, Dec.,
1894 ; another, in the brilliant series
of letters, descriptive of the present
condition of Quebec, written by him
during the summer of 1894, while on
a cycling tour in that Province. Mr.
KE. is known also as the author of a
series of sketches of Can, public men
written for the daily press, which
have been frequently quoted from
and referred to. Politically, he does
not class himself with either party in
Can. He isa journalist, and believes
that the destiny of Can. is safe in
the hands of Canadians, and they
alone have the right to settle and

brought into special prominence in
connection with the litigation over
the Man. sch. question, he having |
been retained to argue the case for |
the Catholic minority both at Ot-
tawa and in London, and it has been
said of him by one who knows, that |
the labour involved was with him one
not merely of duty but of love. In
addition to his regular professional
work he warmly championed the
cause of separate schs. with his pen |

FAIRCAiLD, George Moore, jr., a
retired merchant, is of Scottish and
Eng. extraction, and was b. in the
city of Quebec, 1854. His parents
having removed to N. Y, while he
| was yet a boy, his ed. was completed
in the Univ. of N.Y. While en
gaged in commercial life his applica-
tion and talents attracted the notice
of local capitalists who placed him in
the firm of Schoff, Fairchild & Co.,
to safeguard their interests. So
successfully did he manage his share
of the business, that at the early
|age of 36 he was enabled to retire
‘with a handsome fortune. Since
then he has lived in Quebec. Dur
ing the most active period of his
mercantile career, he found time,
not only to cultivate a love of let
ters, but to contribute to the press.
In addition to many articles upon
passing events which have appeared

FIELDING, Hon. William Stevens,
statesman, is of Eng. descent, and
was b. in Halifax, N.S., Nov. 24,
1848, Ed. there, he left sch. at 16
yrs. of age to enter the business
office of the Morning Chronicle,
which some three months before
had been converted from a tri-week-
ly to a daily pares: Those were
stirring times in N. 8., and Joseph
Howe, William Annand and many
other distinguished Nova Scotians
were contributors to the editorial
pages of the Chronicle. The young
employee was not slow in catching
the spirit of the times aad in plung-
ing into the work of the paper.
Newspaper staffs were not so large
then as they have since become, nor
were depts. so specified, and Mr. F.
was soon immersed in newspaper
work of almost every description.
Within less than 3 yrs. from his
entry into the business office, and
while he was still in his teens, his
first editorial was written. That
was during the heat of the Confeder-
ation movement, and Mr. F.’s sym-
pathies were strong with the Anti-
confederation party, led by Hon.
Joseph Howe. Gradually the young
hand developed into the experienced
ed. The most varied tasks fell to
his lot; frequently in one day he
would cover the local work, do the
work of the shipping dept., act as

proof-reader, and, these duties dis- |

charged, proceed to write the day’s
editorials. ‘thoroughness marked
his work in everything, and no
small amount of the extensive and

At the
Provl. g. e. 1882, he stood for Hali

fax Co., and was elected. On the
resignation of the Holmes-Thomp-
son Govt., July, 1882, a convention
of the Lib. party tendered him the
positions of Premier and Provl. Secy.
and Treasurer, but these honours
were declined. Thus early had his
ability as a debater, his mental
clearness and his energy carried him
to the front. Shortly afterwards
he entered the Admn, of Mr. Pipes.
In May, 1884, he resigned his seat
therein, owing largely to his inabil-
ity to attend to both editorial and
departmental duties. Two months
later Mr. Pipes himself retired, and
Mr. F. was requested by the Lieut.

Gov. to form a new cabinet. He
complied, and formed the Admn.
which remained in office for go long
a time; he himself assumed the
Provl. Secretaryship, which carried
with it the duties of the financial
admn. of the Province. On the
formation of the new Lib. Admn.
at Ottawa, July, 1896, Mr. F. was
apptd. to the office of Mr. of Fi.
nance therein, and was elected to
the Ho. of Commons for Shelburne
and Queen’s. During the session of
1897, he introduced a new tariff
policy for the Dom., the most strik

‘* How has he achieved his singular sue-

cess? By the possession of personal charac- |

teristics which almost inevitably ensure suc-

cess. Emerson says that the world belongs |

ent Min. of Finance is a striking instance
of what can be accomplishee by an energetic
man with a resolute determination to do all
his work thoroughly ."—-Our Monthly.

‘*An able man, an efficient administrator |
and a capital platform speaker, Mr. Field- |

ing is never known to resort to the arts of the
demagogue or the small tricks of the ward

must be done fairly, openly and above

was brought against the Archbp.,

bility of establishing a ry. service
across that island. After the engr.
employed by him had reported satis-
factorily, Mr. F. was charged by
the local govt. to conduct a ry. sur-
vey from St. John’s to St. George’s
Bay. The outcome is the road now
being completed by the Messrs.
Reid. In 1880, owing to political
exigencies, he retired from the ser-
vice of the Dom. Govt. At that
date the transcontinental surveys
had established the practicability of
the Pacific Ry., and the means of

overcoming the formidable barriers |

imposed by nature had been deter
mined. Construction of the work
was being proceeded with at both

ends and betwe > Lake Superior |
and the heart of Manitoba, in all |

ranging over some 2000 miles,
600 miles were nearly completed.

to be to make Greenwich the stan

Council of the Can, Inst., in publish-

1885, made honourable mention of |

Mr. F., concluding in these words

‘* His efforts have contributed in no |

| lishment of the universal vay. The
Inst. cannot, perhaps, better express
the debt of gratitude which the
civilized world owes to Mr. S. F.
in this connection than by quot-
ing from the accompanying paper
from the pen, of the distinguished
Astronomer Royal of Russia, M.

Otto Struve: ‘It is,’ he writes,
‘through Mr. Fleming’s indefati-
gable personal labours and_ writ-
ings that influential individuals and
scientific societies and institutes in
Am, and Europe have been won
over to the cause.” In 1879, Mr.
F. submitted to the Can. Govt. a
scheme for spanning the Pacific Ocean
by electric cable, which in connec-
tion with the overland palograr
would complete the electric girdle
of the globe, and bring Gt. Brit.,

| Can., Australia, New Zealand, In-

dia and South Africa into unbroken
telegraph touch of each other with-
out passing over foreign svil. Since
that date he has continually advo-
cated the establishment of the work,
and has written much on the sub-
ject. The proceedings of the Colo-
nial Confs., of 1887 and 1894, give his
views and arguments at length, and
show how much the discussion
hinged upon them. This important
national work is seemingly in a fair
way of becoming an accomplished
fact, and if ever its history be writ-
ten, Mr. F.’s name must take a
prominent place. He is the author
of a large number of reports and
papers on purely professional sub-

| jects. He has also written and pub-

lished: ‘*The Intercolonial ; a His-
torical Sketch” (1876); ‘‘Short
Suniay Service for Travellers,” a
compilation (1877); ‘‘ Daily Prayers
for Busy Bocesholde (1879); ** Uni-

the cabinet. As Mr. of Marine and
Fisheries in Sir John Macdonald’s
Govt. (to which office he was apptd.
Dec, 10, 1885), he had to prepare

the Can. side of the case in regaré |

to the Deep Sea Fisheries for the
joint comn. that sat at Washington
in 1888, resulting in the Chamber-

lain-Bayard Treaty. This duty he |

is said to have performed with
great care and thoroughness. In
May, 1888, he succeeded Sir Chas.
Tupper, as Mr. of Finance, an office
he continued to hold under Sir John
Abbott, Sir John Thompson, Sir
Mackenzie Bowell and Sir Chas,
Tupper, up to the retirement of the

Con, party from power, July, 1896. |

He was Govt. leader in the Ho. of
Commons during the Session of 1895,

and was one of the ‘“ Nest of Trai- |

tors,” so called by the Premier, who

retired from the Bowell Govt. for a|

few days in Jan., 1896. Mr. F,

visited the W. I. in connection with |

trade interests in 1889, and in 1892
and 1894 visited Eng. reearding
the finances of the Dom., on the
latter occasion negotiating a loan of
$11,250,000. In 1891 he moved for
the appt. of a Royal Comn. on the
Liquor Traffic; in June, 1895, he
was the orator of the day at the
unveiling of the Macdonald monu-
ment in Montreal, He continued
to sit for King’s up to the close of
the 7th Parlt., 1896, when he retired

from that constituency, and at the |

ensuing g. e. was returned for York.
He claims to be a thorough Can., and

a firm believer in the future great- |

ness of the Dom. He advocated the
construction of the C. P. Ry., be-

lieving that it would be a powerful |
forcy in the development and unifi. |

cation of the Dom. He also favours
the idea of an Imp. Federation of
the Brit. Dominions, in which each
country, while perfectly free to man-
age its own domestic affairs, shall be
leagued with all the others in a com.
munity of trade anu defence. Mr.

Sandy”) a writer who in the sixties,
by his caustic, hut never unfair or
cruel verse, put many a prominent
but delinquent Can. politician ‘in
purgatory.” As a young man
entered upon the full study of art,
and with such success, that before
he was 20, he was in the receipt of a
respectable income from portrait
painting. Owing to his father’s
failure in business, the. family emi-

rated to Can., and in 1860, Mr. F.
tite himself compelled to enter
the employ of Wm. Notman, Pho
tographer to the Queen, Montreal.
His advent in that city was coinci
dent with the formation of the Mont-
real Art Assn. Later, he assisted
in the formation of the Soc. of Can.
Artists, which was the first genuine-
ly artistic organization incorporated
in Can. In 1868, he removed to
Toronto, as resident partner in the
Notman & Fraser business; and in

1873, along with a few coadjutors,

the result of his labours was a series

jin London, N. Y., and Boston,

|attracting much public notice and
eliciting generally unstinted praise
from the press. His contributions
to the art display in the Ind. and
Col. Exhn., London, drew from the
| Prof. of Painting to the Royal
| Acad., in his published report,
this statement: ‘* Indeed, in many
respects he may be said to be the
founder of a new sch. of landscape
painting.” This was written in re
cognition of the fact noticed and
|commented on by other authori-
ties, that in the absence of any
congenial models for imitation in
Can., breaking away instinctively
from the old conventions through
| close and eager and earnest observa
| tion of the truths of nature in her
| varying moods, he had really,
| though unconsciously, anticipated
| that art movement which through
procedure from deliberate choice by
abler men on exactly the same lines
that from sheer necessity he had
followed, has subsequent to the re-
marks of the prof. above quoted,
produced the greates. art sensation
of modern times under the name
of ‘‘Impressionism,” or the ‘‘ Im-
pressionistic School.” In 1888, Mr.
F. went to Europe, worked alto
gether in the open air in Scot. and
Eng., and one of his pictures re-
ceived the unusual honour of being
hung on the line at the Royal Acad.
Exhn., 1889. On his return—in

ment of the Salmagundi and N.Y.
Water-Colour Clubs. In 189], the
only year in which he submitted
any works for its acceptance, the
Salon, in the Champs Elysées, Paris,
hung the full number accorded to
any exhibitor. The place of honour,
viz., the centre of the line, was filled
by ‘‘Mauvais Temps,” which the
great French critic, M. Lejendre, pro-
nounced ‘‘strongly original,’ while
another of his pictures, ‘‘ Au Cceur
d’ Ecosse,” was hung on a separate
panel in the best room devoted to
Aquarelles—-the celebrated ‘‘ Fried-
land,1807,”by Meissonier, was placed
in exactly the same position at a
subsequent exhn.—and all the critics
complimented his pictures highly.
In 1893, the Internl. jury at the
World’s Columbian Expn. awarded
him the only medal for water-
colours given to Can.; subsequently
the Cotton States Expn. gave him
the medal for water-colours ; and in
1894 the Montreal Art Assn. water.
colour prize was given to him.
Among those who to-day are promi-
nent in the art of Am., and were
for yrs. his private pupils, are Hora-
tio Walker, N.A.D., Hy. Sandham,
R.C.A., and Wm. Lewis Fraser ;
and in his public capacity as a
teacher in the Ont. Sch. of Art, it
was his good fortune for some time
to direct the earlier studies of G. A.

talents have secured recognition
and distinction. During the last

‘A cultured gentleman of modesty and

FULLER, William Henry, essayist
and playwright, was b. of English
parentage at Ramsgate, Eng., and
After spending some
yrs. in a banking institution in
ndia, he came to Can. in the early
seventies, and entered the service of
the Ontirio Bank. Retiring there
from he devoted himself to mining,
and subsequently turned his atten-
tion to dramatic authorship. Several
of his plays have been produced
on the Am, stage, but he is chiefly
known to Gasaticns as the author of
a clever local burlesque: ‘* H. M. 8.
Parliament,” which had a remark-

|ably successful run during two sea-

tended. Coming to Can., 1857, he |
commenced the practice of his pro: |

fession in Toronto, in partnership
with Chilion Jones, of that city. In
1859, in the competition for the

Parlt. and Departmental Buildings |

and Governor's residence at Ot-
tawa, their design for the Parlt.

Building was adopted, and the}
second premium was awarded them |

for their designs for the Depart-

mental Buildings and Governor’s |
residence. Mr, F. then removed to

Ottawa, where he remained until

1867. In that year, in the competi: |

tion for the new Capitol for the State |

of N. Y., at Albany, his design was
one of the three to which equal pre-
miums were awarded, and in the

sons in the principal cities of the
Dom. Of essays and brochures he
has written not a few: ‘ Flap-
doodle,” ‘*The Unspecific Scandal,”
‘*Ye Ballad of Lyttel John A.,”
‘*Mr. Sprouts—-his Opinions,” and
* A Dream of Pure Politicians,”
being some of those which attracted
most attention by their witty and
keen criticisms of the follies and
weaknesses of the day. These pro
ductions, though bristling with keen
sarcasm, are reningkatls for the
entire absence of acerbity or offen-
siveness, and this peculiarity, so rare
in this class of writing, evoked the
unstinted commendation of the Karl
of Dufferin, than whom there could

| be no higher authority. Mr. F. was

second competition, to which the |

three successful competitors were
united, Augustus Laver, one of the
three, prepared a joint design with
Mr. F., which was ultimately
adopted. He remained at Albany
until 1881, w on he returned to Ot-
tawa, and in
apptd. Chief Architect for the Dom.
This office he continued to hold until

of that year, was |

Sir L. H. Lafontaine, Sir J. J. O,
Abbott, and leading experts, he at
once took a commanding position,

especially in commercial cases. He
was created a Q. C. by the Marquis
/of Lorne, 1880. Among the many
|important causes in whisk he was
|retained were: Ashley Hibbart vs.
| the Can. Rubber Co.; Seguin de la
| Salle vs, Bergevin; Voyer vs. Richer ;
| Viger vs. Belliveau ; Wilson vs. De-
mers; the Hotel Dien vs, the Council
of Agricul,, on which occasion Mr,
| G. was retained by both the Comnr.
| of Agricul. and Sir H. G. Joly, then
leader of the Quebec Opposition.
'In the famous Grange-Benning
| breach of promise case, he was for
the defence. The above were all
private cases. He was also retained
in the following, which were of a
more public character viz: The
Lachine Canal case; Jette os. Me
Naughton; the Jacques Cartier
election case; the Raft case; the St.
Anne’s ballot box case ; the Grinnell
customs case; the Monde-Trudel
libel case; the Becthiaume-Minerve

counsel for Mr Geoffrion, Q.C.) ; the
| Montreal Ch. Warden election case;
the Insur. cases with t' » Richelieu

|feated by his opponent, the late
| Hon. R. Laflamme, Q.C., by 48
votes. He was again defeated on
| presenting himself in Beauharnois
|at the g. e, 1874. Returning to
Jacques Cartier in 1876, when he
was defeated by 28 votes, and again
1878, he won the seat on an appeal

distinguished himself in connection
with the Deceased Wife’s Sister
Bill, which he introduced 2 ses-

sions and finally carried, after a pro- |

longed debate and the most strenu-
oun opposition, 1882. Although
one of the staunchest supporters of

the Con. Govt., he took a leading |

part in the movement against the
execution of Riel, on the ground of
insanity, and with 16 other French
Con. mem. constituted for atime a
separate group of the party known
as the ‘‘ Bolters.” His letter, pub-
lished Nov., 1885, in answer to the
defence of the Govt. by Sir Alex.
Campbell, was widely circulated
and noticed. He was Chairman of
the Standing Comte. on Privileges
and Elections, and in that capacity
presided in the Langevin-McGreevy
case, 1891, at 104 sittings of the
comte. No exception was taken to
any of his numerous decisions in this
lengthy case, and on the presenta-
tion of the report of the comte. to

the Ho., Mr. G. was complimented |
by leading mems. of the Opposition |

for the impartial spirit evinced by
him throughout. Besides his werk
on Bills of Exchange (1860), Mr. G.
wrote an essay on the Insolvent Act
of 1864, and ‘* Considérations sur
les lois civiles du mariage ” (1868),
He wasa contributor to La Rev.

Can., to La Rev. Critique (which |

he conducted with the late W. H.
Kerr, Q.C.), to La Rev. de Droit In-

tern., and to La Minerve. As a!

student he lectured successfully be-
fore L’Inst. Can, Francais and the
Cabinet de Lec. Paroissial. His
most important contributions to
Can. literature (and inacknowledg
ment of which he was presented

with the Confederation Medal by |

the Earl of Aberdeen), were made

during recent yrs. As the result of |
long aud patient research in the |
ancient archives of the country, he |
began, 1889, the publication of a!
series of essays dealing with the |

earlier history of some portions of
the dist. of Montreal. These were
largely translated from the French,

/ volume which was given to the pub-
lic in the year of the World’s Fair,
| 1893, under the title of ‘‘ Lake St.
Louis, Old and New, Illustrated, and
Cavalier de la Salle.” Of this work
it has been said that ‘‘ more light is
thrown upon the history of the early
settlement of Montreal Island, the
‘first inhabitants of the dist., and
the Indian wars of the period than
had previously been afforded by any
| Eng. or French-speaking historian.”
Since its appearance he has publish
ed ‘‘Les Anciens Postes du Lac

In 1879 and 1880 Mr. G. made a
tour of the world, and on his return
published: ‘‘The World, Round It

GLASS, Hon. David, Q.C., is the
2nd s. of the late Saml, Glass, who

came to Can., 1819. His ancestors |

came from Scot. to the north of
Irel., and settled at Loch Glass,
1607. B. in the Tp. of Westminster,
Ont., July 1, 1840, he was ed. at the
London Grammar Sch., and with
James Thompson, the well-known
classical teacher. He was called to
the bar, 1864, and practised for

some yrs. in London, Ont., where |
’ ,

his firm conducted an extensive and
varied business. He-'cfended Jones
in the Delaware muraer trial ; Thos.
Coyle, in the Nissouri murder case ;
and Smith in the Sombra murder
trial, at Sarnia. He also defended
Wilson, in the celebrated arson trial,
at Windsor, Ont. Mr. G. entered
the London City Council, 1855, re-
maining as ald. until 1858, when he
was elected to the Mayoralty by a
unanimous vote. At the end of his
term of office he was presented by
the corporation with a silver tea
service. He was subsequently twice
elected to the Maxciaity by a vote
of the people. He also filled the
office of Police Magistrate and Judge
of the Recorder's Court at London,

and was Depty. Judge of the Co. of |

Middlesex. Created a Q. C. by the
Ont. Govt., 1876, he was elected a

bencher of the Law Soc. of Ont., |

1880. Removing to Winnipeg, 1882,
he was called to the bar of Man.,
May, 1882, and was soon after apptd.
Solicitor for the City of Winnipeg,
in which city he enjoyed a large and
lucrative practice in partnership
with his son, Chester Glass. In
1872, he was elected in the Con. in-
terest, to the Ho. of Commons, for
Kast Middlesex, and sat in that house
during the ensuing Parlt. In Oct.,
1873, he, with 13 other supporters,
opposed Sir John Macdonald’s Govt.
on what was known as the ‘‘ Pacific
Railway Scandal.” His speech in
the House on that occasion was re-

26

ported in pamphlet form, and had a
very wide circulation everywhere.
There was no invective against the
Govt. in his remarks, but an argu-
ment upon the constitutional ques-
tions before the Ho. The great
‘speech of Sir Donald Smith soon
followed, and the Govt. resigned on
Nov, 5, 1873. In 1886 Mr. G. was
elected for St. Clements, in Man.,
_and soon after, by a unanimous vote,
| was chosen Speaker of the Legisla-
tive Assembly, which office he filled
to the end of the Parlt. While
occupying the dual position of city
solicitor and Speaker of the As-
sembly, he had an attack of muscu-
lar rheumatism. His doctors ad-
vised a discontinuance of sedentary
employment. For 2 succeeding yrs.
he spent most of the time on the
salt water, and became completely
restored to robust health. In 1889
| he visited the Paris Expsn., and in
| 1890 and 1891, passed a large part
of his time in N. Y. and Boston,
|} and the neighbouring seaport towns.
| He has wads a special study of the
world’s expositions, since the first
one held in Hyde Park, London,
1851, under the auspices of the late
Prince Consort. In 1853 he at-
| tended the World’s Fair at N. Y.,
and in 1876 the World’s Fair at
Philadelphia, and the Paris Expsn.
in 1889. He attended the Chicago
Expsn., 1893, on 2 different occa-
|sions, in order to make a special
study thereof. He is at present
preparing a book for publication on
| the subject of these several exposi-
itions. Mr. G. always had a fend:
ness for travel. When he was 20
yrs. of age he visited the W. I.
| Islands, and with others crossed
Mexico on horseback from the At-
lantic to the Pacific Oceans, a long
halt being made at the yoni
camps of Zacatacas. He was struc

with the similarity of the moun-
tainous dist. in B, C. to those of
| Zacatacas in Mexico. But the
| Kaslo and Slocan mining dist. of
|B. C. are much richer and more
| extensive ; the ore there yielding
| over $100 per ton. During 1894 he

minerals, timbers, fisheries and other
resources, is destined to be the key
stone in the great arch of Brit. Am.,
and that the distinguished men con
nected with the Can. Pac. Ry., the
ry. itself, and its excellent manage-
ment, constitute the most important
feature in the whole Oolonial Em

pire. In 1864, after an interview |

ton, Mr. G, gave his impressions of

that great man in the London Free |

Press, and afterwards presided at a
mass meeting at London, to give ex-

sression to the public abhorrence of |
his assasination. In 1860 he joined |
the Masonic order, and soon after |
became master of his mother lodge |

and mem. of the Grand Lodge of

Can., but his chief field of Masonic |
research has been in the Scottish |

Rite, where he has taken 32°, and
has visited some of the finest lodges
in the world. In 1893, at the Chi.

attended the World’s Congress of
Masonry at the Masonic Temple.

iof 1,000 tons,

in Eng. and on the . continent with
equal success, Among the important
works of which he has had charge
have been the construction of the
Eveleigh running sheds, a building
with a semi-circular rib roof of 100
ft. span, and the Eveleigh workshop
with a hip roof of 50 ft. span, 150 ft.
long, besides numerous ry. and road
bridges. A most responsible under-
taking was one for the Govt. of
New South Wales, which included
the ironwork for the immense abat-
toirs at Sydney, sewage aqueducts
made of wrought iron 6 ft. in diam-
eter, with bridges for carrying them,
and machinery for a cable traction
While in Australia he
constructed a 720 foot suspension

GOULD, Joseph, art critic, Mont-
real, was for some yrs. engayed in
business in Montreal, at’ the head |

of the firm of Gould & Hill, plana: |

forte dealers. Although known as
a writer and lecturer on music and
art culture generally, his talents in
this respect were not fully displayed
until the publication of Arcadia in
1892, a fortnightly paper devoted to
music, art and letters, of which he
was ed. and prop. This paper was re-
garded as being in advance of the gen-
eral culture of the mass of the Can.
people, and for this reason was not as
well supported as it should have

been. It had for contributors many |

of the best writers and critics in the
Provinces, Since it ceased publica-
tion, 1893, Mr. G. haa written for
other journals. He is a prominent

office-bearerof the Handeland Haydn |

Soe. of Montreal, and otherwise
seeks to promote a love for music.
He has twice served as chairman of
the Bd. of Exams. of the Royal Coll.
of Music. In 1895, in acknowledg-
ment of ‘signal services” rendered
by him to the Montreal Art Assn.,

he was unanimously elected a life |

Ed. at the Hunting-

ship in newspaper work under his
uncle, the late E. H. Parsons, an
old-time journalist, who published
The Commercial Advertiser and
afterwards V'he Hvening Telegram
in Montreal. On the discontinuance
of the last-nar‘ed paper, on which
he had been engaged, Mr. G. be-
came for a time Secy.-Treas, of the
Gazette Printing Co. Later, in

publication of The Evening Star, a

patient struggle, is now the best
paying newspaper property in Can.,
with an average daily circulation
of 45,500, and with a circulation for
its weekly edition of over 87,000,
the whole yielding the proprietor an
average income of $45,000 a year.
The full control of the Star soon
passed entirely into Mr. G.’s hands,
and from that time the paper’s
progress became more rapid and it
began to acquire strong friends and
'a constituency of its own, In the

His career there was distinguished
by exceptional brilliancy. He was

best essay on Hindoo Lit. and Phil.
Ordained to the ministry Nov.,

| His duties as Principal include the

| struction in all the faculties, in ad-
| dition to his labours as Primarius
| Prof. of Theol. He belongs to the
| Lib. sch. of thought in the Presb.
| Ch., the meaning of which is that
| while he adheres to the cardinal
doctrines of the Gospel, he desires
to give the utmost freedom to indi-
vidual thought and opinion within
the limits of the fundamental] basis
of the Ch. He hopes to see further
triumphs of the principles of union,
taking the form of a federation of
the great Prot. Chs. Politically, his
sympathies are with causes and prin-
ciples, and not with parties. He
gave his support in N. 8, to those
'who advocated and carried free
sachs. and the Confederation of the
Provinces into a united Can. Singe
that date he has supported every
movement looking to the cultivation
of Can. sentiment, the extension of
trade on British lines, and the pro-
motion of closer relations between
the colonies and the mother land.

HAGUE, George, bank manager,
belongs to an old Yorkshire family.
In fact, in the profession by w hich
he is generally known he had several
predecessors. Three of his rela-
tives, on the mother’s side, were

bd ’

managers of the local bank in the |

manutacturing town where he was
brought up. 5B. at Rotherham,
Yorkshire, Eng., 1825, he was ed.
at his native place, andl commenced
his business career in the office of
the Shettield Banking Co. Coming
to Can., 1854, as the financial
mangr. for a firm of ry. contrac-
tors, he, after 2 yrs., accepted the
appt. of accountant at headquarters
in the newly organized Bank of
Toronto. Promoted mangr. of the
Cobourg branch, 1860, he was re-
called to Toronto, in 1868, to suc-
ceed the late Angus Cameron as |
cashier of the bank. While holding |

this office Mr. H. took an ac tive
part in all matters relating to the
polity of banking, and, in co-opera-
tion with other bankers and with
mems. of Parlt., offered an un-
flinching resistance to the proposal
of the then Govt. to change the
basis of the circulation of the banks.
These exertions were crowned with
success, the govt. scheme being
withdrawn after being 2 sessions
before Parlt. and another scheme
introduced and carried in the na-
ture of a compromise. Intending
to devote his future yrs. entirely
to religious and philanthropic work,
ihe retired from the service of the
| Bank of Toronto at the end of the
year 1876. Not long afterwards,
the Merchants’ Bank of Can., as
the result of errors committed
|in connection with its manage-
‘ment, found itself in a een
'of serious embarrassment, Mr.

was urgently requested to ae
|charge of the bank and extricate
lit from its difficulties. Abandon-
ing his own inclinations, he did so,
bec oming genl. mangr. of the bank,
1877. After a thorough examins-
jtion of the situation, he decided
that the best course was to reduce
| the capital stock, which was im-
| paired, and start afresh. This was
done, and by constant attention and
unremitting care on his part, along
with the active co-operation of an
able Bd. of Dirs., the institution
was brought slowly forward, until
it stands to-day in the forefront
of Can. banking institutions. Not-
‘withstanding his exacting official
labours, Mr. H, has found time to
serve his country in other direc-
tions. For many yrs. he has con-
tributed extensively to the press on
banking and financial subjects. He
\is the author of a lecture on ‘* Mod
ern Business” (1879), of a paper on
‘‘ Banking,” read before the Brit.
Assn. (1884), of several papers read

said; ‘* This is a task which he has

to address the electors of Brighton

both these constituencies went over
to that party by large majorities at
the g. e. On returning to Can.,
1876, he was entertained at a public
dinner at the Westminster Palace
Hotel. Mr. H., who was the first
colonist by birth that was ever
elected to the Council of the Royal
Coll. Inst., resigned that position

1881 to give up his law business in

the chapter on ‘‘ All Souls’ Day ” |
consists of a long quotation from Mr.

his statement that there is a copy
of it in the Brit. Museum, as only a
part of it is there. The most
eminent scientist in Europe, and a
specialist on the subject both of
dwarfs and of Cretinism, Prof. Vir

said, **that south, and to some |

must certainly give the credit of the

Prof. Starr, of the Dept. of Anthrop. |
Univ., of Chicago, wrote, Apl. 30,

1897: ‘* Half of my article on the |
Pygmy Races of Men,’ in the North |

Am. Rev., for June, 1896, was
devoted to Mr. H.’s discoveries. It
is possible that his idea, that the
history of man begins with a
‘Dwarf Era,’ may in time be ae
copted by science.” In 1893, Prof.
Sayce wrote to Mr. H.: ‘ Your
name hereafter will be attached to
the discovery of dwarf races in

to that of the dwarfs of Central

In Aug., 1876, he won a champion-

In Sept., 1876, he won the singles at

but invincible, only being beaten in
a regatta at Providence, R.I., in
1880, when he retired at the stake

wrenched his side. During these

The same yr, he wrote a history of
St. John. Meanwhile, he was
collecting material for the work
which afterwards made his reputa-
tion as an historian. No good his-
tory of Acadia under the French
régeme had yet appeared. Murdock’s
work was more in the nature of a
record of events than a history, and
Campbell and Haliburton’s were the
product. of insufficient resources.
His ‘‘ History of Acadia” was
published in 1879 in St. John, and
London, Eng. The work was
favourably received and obtained
the highest commendation of the
reviewers; and well it might, for
it possessed the qualities essential
to both an historical and a literary
work. It was an elaborate and
scholarly work and combined the

research of the historian, the |

judicial cast of the thinker and the
grace of the /ittérateur, Yt is now
in its 4th edition. Of other works
from his pen the most important
are. ‘The History ot the Queen’s
Rangers,” and ‘* The History of the

Loyalists,” both in part published |

in the Telegraph. He is now pre-

paring ** The Life and Times of Sir |

of the War of 1812.” Mr. H. is a

the late |

Globe has this to say: ‘‘ No
less than 150 public and private bills
were introduced by him between
1874 and 1896, and nearly every one
of them passed. But the subjects
these dealt with are more important
than mere numbers. Their wide
range, scope and variety are the
best evidence of the versatility and
breadth of view of the present
Premier, and their presence on our
statute books is open testimony to
his laborious public life, his industry
and his valuable work as a repre

; sentative and parliamentarian. As
| to public

bills, there is scarcely a
subject over which the Legislature
has jurisdiction that Mr. H. has not
dealt with. In his second session
he introduced an important bill re
specting ry. traffic, which placed the
relations of rys. towards shippers
and the public upon an entirely

through by him, and is found to
work admirably. The Jurors’ Act
and the mode of election was en-
tirely reconstructed by Mr. H.,
and afterwards consolidated, with
amendments. The number of jurors
returned had been unnecessarily
large. The act empowered the local
hoards, composed of the Co. Judge
and others, to reduce the number
wherever they felt it could be safely
done. Many thousand dollars per
annum have been saved to the
various counties of the Province
through this amendment. <A recent
measure introduced by him also pro-
vided that in civil cases 10 jurors
might give a verdict. This has been
found to give great relief to jurors
and to work satisfactorily. Mr. H.
was one of acomte. of Lib. mems. who
originally settled the terms of and
drafted the Voters’ Lists Act. An act
to give increased stability to mutual
fire ins. cos, did much to strengthen
the solvent cos. of this character,
and to weed out those established
on other than business principles.
The act respecting interpleader
lessened the cost of those proceed

ings materially by enabling the |

issues in some cases, where seizures
had been made under executions, to
be tried in the Co. Cts. In 1882,
when Prov. Secy., Mr. H. carried
through the act establishing the Bd.
of Health, which has done so much
to disseminate knowledge of hygiene
ind inspire local action on the part
of the municipalities in connection
with the public health. He apptd.
Dr. Bryce, whose vigour and energy
are well known, as Secy. Acts re
lating to the Admin. of Justice in
criminal matters, to the laws of ins.,
an act under which industrial schs
might be established, one relating to
the performance of statute labor,
one for the organization of water
works and gas cos., measures re
lating to joint stock cos., to births,
marriages and deaths, to amending

the Election Act, respecting private |
lunatic asylums, an industrial refuge |
for girls, and the reformatory for |

institutions, all became law under
his supervision. So also with respect
to acts relating to distress for rent
and taxes and exempting certain
properties, as to the establishment
of homes of industry and industrial
farms, respecting the oftices of Police
Magistrate and Sheriff, damage te
land by flooding, and many other
acts of like character, which it is
not necessary to enumerate. While
he was Provl. Secy., a series of acts
relating to the public institutions of
the Province, and another series re

| lating to the liquor license question
jand the enforcement of the liquor

laws occupied a great deal of his
time and attention in the Legis
lature. Much might be said of Mr.
H.’s efforts as a temp, reformer
under the license laws. The act
known as the ‘Crooks Act’ is more
largely the work of Mr. H. than of
Mr. Crooks, if the seope of the act,
when the latter handed over the
charge of license matters to his suc

account. Bills upon this subject
were carried through the House by
Mr. H. in 1878, 1881, 1884, 1887 and
1888. These acts were all in the
direction of providing severer penal
ties tor infractions of the law, for its
better enforcement, and to provide

| for the enforcement of the ‘ Dunkin

and ‘Scott’ acts as well. Space does

i not permit giving the details of these

several enactments. Sutlice it to say

that during Mr. H.’s long term of

the license law dept. no attack was
ever made upon his admn. that did
not meet with instant reply and
satisfactory explanation. Bills giv-
ing the right of representation in
the Local Legislature to the Rainy
River and Nipissing Dists., and of
the election of their first mems.,
were also submitted by him, as
Comnr, of Crown Lands. His legis-
lation has had largely to do with
the Crown demain, free grants to
settlers, the public timber and pub
lic parks, and the municipal assess
mentand drainage laws. Bills re-

received Mr. H.’s attention. The |

work in the shanties in the eutting

measures, however, have been con-

in 1890, 1891 and 1892. In the latter

year the amendments made in 189]
aa 1892 were incorporated into a
general act with other amendments

|

and the whole act consolidated. |

Some of these amendments are of

the first importance and were in the |

interest of the explorer and the
operator, and tended to facilitate

the development of the mining in- |

terests of the Province. A Bureau
of Mines was established, a minimum
quantity of mining lands which may
be sold by the Crown wags reduce ed

of taking lands or lease instead of

P. KE. L, having noted the success
which attended Dr. H.’s work in St.
John, invited him to accept the
position of Supt. of Education in
that province. This offer he de
clined, being loath to leave his work
in St. John. Not long after, when
the Victoria Sch. building was de
stroyed by fire, he was asked to
assume the principalship of the Prov
Normal Sch., Charlottetown. This
he did, with the understanding that

|he would be free to return to St.

John as soon as his sch, should be re
built. At the end of a year or more,
when he proposed to carry out
this intention, strong efforts were
put forth to induce him to stay, the
result’ being that he remained in

Many of his lyrics have been highly
praised, while some of his poems in
the Scottish dialect have been spe
cially recognized by Dr. John Ross,
in his ‘Scottish Poets in Am.’
Among his descriptive poems, some,
such as ‘‘ The Battle of the Plains’
and ** The Old Chateau,” have been
widely noticed. Dr. H. is also well
known as a writer of sch. text-books,
his ‘* History of the Maritime Pro-
vinces” having been recognized as
an excellent treatise. Many bro
chures and lectures have come from
his pen, the former including,

valuable papers published in the

‘A distinguished educationist.”—Star

HARRINGTON, Bernard Jamus,
educationist, was b. at St. Andrews,
P.Q., where his father’s family have
resided for several generations,
Aug. 5, 1848. Owing to weak eye-
sight, from which he suffered while
a boy, he spent little time at sch.,
and received his elementary ed.
chiefly from private teachers. Later,
he matriculated at McGill Univ.,
and graduated B.A., taking Ist
rank honours in Natural Science
and the Logan gold medal, 1869. |

He then continued his studies in the
Shettield Scientific Sch. of Yale
Coll., New Haven, Conn., where
he remained as a post-graduate
student tor two yrs., devoting hi
attention principally to Chemistry
Mineral, and Metal., and at the end
of that time graduated with dis
tinction as Ph. D., obtaining also the
prize in Mineral, Dr, H. took as
the subject for his thesis the ‘ Sie
mens-Martin process for the pro
duction of steel.” Shortly after this
Principal (now Sir J. W.) Dawson
was apptd. by the Gov. of P. E. I

|to examine that Province and re

port upon its economic resources,
especially as to the possibility ot
finding coal on the island, and Di
H. was selected as his asst. The
results of this survey are to be found
in a report published by the Govt,
In 1871, Dr. H. was apptd. Lecture:

Univ., and the following — yea
crossed the Atlantic and spent sey
eral mths. in the principal mining

jand manufacturing centres of the

Mother Country. On his return he
was apptd. Chemist and Mineral. to
the Geol, Survey, which position had
been just rendered vacant by the
resignation of Dr. T. Sterry Hunt.
The Survey was at that time located
in Montreal, and for the following
7 yrs. Dr. TH, discharged the duti

of both positions. In 1879, increased
duties at the Univ. obliged him to
resign his connection with the Sur
vey. Since that time his attention

|has been devoted exclusively to
| Univ. work, the rapid growth of

McGill Coll., and especially the

| greatly increased number of stu

dents in the Faculty of Applied
Science, necessitating every yea!
more extended courses of instruc
tion. In 1883, he was apptd. David
Greenshields’ Prof. of Chemistry and
Mineral., retaining at the same time,
the position of Lecturer in Mining
and Metall. This latter position,
however, he retired from in 1891.

but she did not begin seriously to
cultivate literature until leaving

’| Ottawa about 9 yrs. ago. While

a resident with her husband at the
Federal capital, she wrote and com-
posed a song of welcome for the
initial appearance of the Marquis of

, eral other songs, which were pub-

lished in Eng., and likewise acted
as musical critic for one of the large

” | western dailies under the name of

‘Gilbert King.” Since then she

i|has contributed to The Strand,

has published: ‘* Crowded Out,” a

‘collection of short stories” (1888) ;

«The Can. Birth-Day Book,” (1889) ;
‘*Pine, Rose and Fleur-de-Lis,”
‘*Down the River” and other poems

writers to explore the French-Can.
field for character and descriptive
sketches, and has done for the

owing to an accidental error made
regarding her signature. Several

Asaclergyman Mr. H, has brought

earnestness, bongs,
and outspoken manly presentation
of truth. One of the aims he has
always had in view has been the con-
servation of religious peace with
honour one the different sections
of the Can, community. He takes

‘it as a happy omen ‘ that thought-

ful men in different chs. are ap-
proaching one another along the lines
of least resistance, are seriously ask-

‘ing the question whether it is God’s

will whether there should be such a

high clussical honours, | perplexing number of sects and ‘de-

460

nominations,’ and are rcalizing with
growing clearnoss that the weakest
part of a man’s creed is that which
is peculiar to himself, aud the strong-
est part that which h» holds in com-
mon wit) all who really desire the
name of Christian. In this land
of ours, where religious tolerance
has such full opportunity for its dis-
play, we ought to be abie to contrib-
ute our part ia answering the prayer
of Christ Himself that His Ch, on
earth may be one.” Among the
most important of his contributions

to literature have been essays on |

** Beethoven,” ‘* Milton,” ‘* Robert
Browning,” and ‘* Woman: Her
Place and Work.” Politically, he

HERRING, Richard Owen, journal-

when 6 yrs. of age. Having served
his apprenticeship to the printing
business, he established a paper in
Goderich under the name of the
Canadian Colonist, now the Star,
but sold it in less than a year.
After a brief course at Ann Arbor
Univ., Mich., he came to Oil

W lls, Ont., at the time the big}

flowing wells were first struck,

Jan., 1865, and there started the |

Oil Spr’ngs Chronicle, which lived
till Dec., 1866, when, as he expres-
sively relates, ‘‘The Fenian raid
knocked the bottom
town.” Coming later to Petrolea,
he founded the Advertiser, which
was really a continuation of the
Chronicle, and which he has con-
tinued to publish uninterruptedly

ever since, with a brief exception of |

a few months’ interregnum in 1871,
when the oil business was so low
that it would not pay to issue a
paper, crude oil being sold for 20
cents a barrel, while ordinary drink-
ing water brought 25 cents a barrel.

yrs. on his father’s farm. On the
latter’s death, he went west, and

| was for some yrs, a clk. in various

mercantile houses in St. Paul, Minn.
In 1865, after having raised a co, for
service during the war, he took the
agency of the North-Western Packet
Co., and continued in that position
until the consolidation of the North-
| Western and Davidson lines, 1867.
From the latter year to 1869 he was
engaged in the general transporta-
tion and fuel business, and was the
agent and consignee of the St. Paul
‘and ‘acifie Ry. Co. In 1869
the urm of Hills, Griggs & Co. was
formed to carry on this business,
| and continued in operation till 1875.
'In 1870 Mr. H. established the Red
River Transportation Co,, and open-
ed up for the first time regular and
direct communication between St,
Paul and Fort Garry, now Winni-
peg. In 1871 he consolidated this
| co. with one previously established
by N. W. Kittson, and was brought
|into contact with Sir D. A. Smith
(now Lord Strathcona and Mount
| Royal, g.v.), who became an asso-
| ciate in the business, Later, in
1878, he was instrumental in form-
‘ing a syndicate, composed of the
present Lord Mount Stephen, the
present Lord Strathcona, himself
and others, who secured from the
Dutch Comte. at Amsterdam the
bonds of the St. Paul and Pacific
Ry., which ry, had passed into the
hands of a receiver, The syndicate
' obtained possession of the road, and
|Mr. H. was made its Mang.-Dir.
| Out of this sprang the organization,
| composed mainly of the same sae
| ties, who afterwards built the Can.
| Pac, Ry. In 1883 he sold out his
interest in the Can, Pac. Ry. to his
| associates, retired from the direc-
torate, and from that time has de-
| voted his entire attention to the
| business of the St. Paul, Minne-
|apolis and Man. Ry., or to the

In his published account of these
undertakings Prof. H. describes for
the first time the extent and char-
acter of the Can. fisheries. Re-
signing his professorship, 1864, he
next undertook a preliminary geol.
survey of N. B., for the Govt. of
that Province. In 1866 he removed
to N. 8., and subsequently made an
examination of the gold dists. there
for the local govt. In 1876 he made
an exploration of the mineral field
in the north-eastern portion of Nfd.,
and vaence on the Atlantic Coast of
Labrador, nearly as far north as
Nain, or about 350 miles north of
the Straits of Belle Isle. While
thus engaged he discovered and
mapped an extensive series of cod
banks, stretching for several hun-
dred miles north-west of Belle Isle,
and about 20 or 30 ‘uiles from the
coast line. At the close of 1876 his
services were secured by the Nfd.
Govt. to examine and report on the
newly discovered cod banks, as far
as Hudson’s Straits, but just before
setting out for this duty, he was
called to Halifax to assist in the
scientific portion of the werk before
the Fisheries Comn., then meeting
there under the provisions of the
Treaty of Washington. He re-
mained at Halifax until the close of
the arbitration, when all the docu-
ments and records vf proceedings
on both sides were placed in his
hands for analysis and indexing. In
1878 he prepared for the Paris
Exposn. a series of charts illustra-
ting the movements of fish in the
North Am. waters during summer
and winter, the spring and f

e coastal movements of the cod,

Occupations, or industries to which
a country is not adapted by nature,
climate, or facilitw of production,
are time and money wasted, and do
not come within the legitimate
sphere of the operations of a true
national policy. This, in his opin-
ion, is the essence of true political
economy. Facilities for transpor-
tation, and all the best and latest
improvements in everything, ought
to be adopted, and these be aided
by the best education in science,
literature and art, always aiming at
the very highest position attainable
as a nation in religion and morality,

as well as social relations. A Presb.

contributed by him to ‘* Puck’s Gir

recounts some of the leading features
of his present charge—a charge
which has been the means of work
ing a revolution in the commercial
life of all parts of Can, during the past
|l0 yrs. ‘‘ In former days the Great
N. W. Tel. Co. had undisputed con
trol of the entire telegraphic business
of Can., and so great was the power
| that it exercised for good or for evil
| that people began to seriously ask
| themselves whether such exclusive
power should not belong alone to the
Govt., and be subject to popular con-
'trol. As was the case, however,
with Eng. railways, so it was with
| the Can. telegraph system; relief
| from the danger was speedily found
in competition. The engrs. who
carried the ry. line across the con
tinent also took with them the essen
tial telegraph line, until in Nov.,
1885, Can. found that she possessed
| not only a great trunk ry., but also
'a telegraph system bringing every
section of the Dom. into the closest
contact, and occupying the almost
unique position of being practically
operated as a portion of the Can.
Pac. Ry. system.” But in its

article refd, to, that the ©. P. Oo, | Ide, architect, and was b, in Mont-

has not forgotten the need for a high- |
class telegraphic service, This care
in establishing an efficient line was
made all the more necessary by the |
enormous lengths of the circuits |
which have to be worked, Mr, H.
says that direct circuits (duplexed) |
are worked regularly between San |
Francisco and New Westminster, |
1200 milea; between New West-

and Winnipeg and Montreal, 1423 |

with each other over a distance of |
nearly 2000 miles, and on Sundays |
New York and San Francisco are |
put in direct connection, a distance
of over 4600 miles. And this is not
all, for Mr. H., speaking of that
bee-hive of industry, his central office
in Montreal, says that in the opera-
ting room of the co. can be seen

entered politica: life at the Provl.
g. e. 1894, being then returned to
the Legislature for South Toronto
in the Con, interest by a majority
of 2070 over the Lib. candidate, the
present Mr. Justice Moss. In addi-
tion to two books: ‘‘The Irish Prob-
lem, viewed by a citizen of the
Kmpire”’ (1887), and ‘The New
Empire ; Reflections upon its Origin,
Constitution and its relation to the
Great Republic” (1891); he has
written for the Week, the Can. Mag.
and the Barrister. Among such
contributions have been articles on
‘*The Life of Sir John Thompson,”
** Art Spirit,” the ‘* Copyright Ques-
tion,” and on the ‘* 400th year of
Can. History,” besides reviews of
writers of History and Travel. He
is a believer in the continued devel-
opment of Can., Brit. and Am. insti-
tutions and relations rather than in
political revolution ; in Imp. unity,
without any sacrifice of Colonial
individuality. In the ‘‘New Em-
pire,” published in 1891, he was the
first to advocate an internl. ct. be-
tween the U.S. and the Brit. Empire,
and to exhibit the constitutional
and hist. unity of the two peoples as a
foundation for such a ct. The scheme
is the same as that adopted by the
two Govts. in 1897, in the treaty
agreed upon between Lord Salisbury
and Presdt. Cleveland. In the in-
terval Mr. H. had placed the scheme
before several popular bodies, includ-
ing the intern]. deep waterwsys con-
vention at its meetings at Toronto,
1894, and Cleveland, 1895, and at the
Trans- Mississippi Congress at St

Louis, 1895. Resolutions embody-
ing its principles were unanimously
slepted

the people and govt. of the U. 8. and
the Brit. Empire. These principles
are embodied in the resolution. In
{897 he read a paper on the subject
before the Can. Bar Assn, at Halifax.

ardent and industrious student, his
efforts at literary production have
been desultory rather than systema-

many articles of his, critical and ar-

and fiction, have found their way
into high-class periodicals here and
in Eng. His taste savours of pro-
nounced medievalism, as might,
perhaps, be expected in the mem.
of a family which does not accept
the political latitudinarianism of the
times. His writings are well known,
especially in the Maritime Pro-
vinces. Among the lesser of them
are fragments of a lyric poem: ‘*John
a Var his Lais”; translations of
‘* Vaux des Vires,” and of an Italian
troubadour romance: ‘*The Seven

“The Judgment of Osiris,” besides
a work of fancy, ‘Annals of the
Court of Oberon,” with others. His
published volumes are: ‘*The Kn-
;amorado,” a drama; ‘* Roberval,”

‘*Many women desire to do these
things, but do not know how to

has written stories and poems for
many periodicals, and one series of
stories on *f Women’s Work in New

some Scotch articles that hit upon
social topics, and were very popular.

Chemistry at the Ont. Ag. Coll.,
Guelph, 1886. Principal Mills
writes that: ‘Prof. James was
popular at the Inst., both with the
students and with his fellow-pro-
fessors. His lectures were always

prepared with the greatest care and |

delivered with that clearness pecu-
liar to his style, which rendered
them so attractive. So completely
satisfactory were his lectures that
his many friends who were cogni-
zant of this fact, while they rejoiced

to hear of his promotion to another |

branch of the public service, felt
that the Ag. Coll. would sustain a
severe loss in his removal.”* The
promotion referred to was his appt.
as Depty. Mr. of Agricul. and as
Secy. of the Ont. Bureau of Indus-
tries, which took effect from June,
1891. In this new position, by his
ability, knowledge and peculiar fit-

convictions that Presb. and other |

branches of the Cath. Ch. are far
removed from Primitive Christianity

in consequence of interpolation of |

mythological and other corruptions
from the lower grades of heathen-
ism. This conviction led to his re-

questing the Presby. to strike his |

name off the list of ministers, not
wishing to occupy a false position.
He then went to Chicago and affili-

ated with the ‘‘Am. Congress of |

is the dau. of the late Geo, Hy. M.
Johnson, head Chief of the Mohawk

ells, a native of Bristol, Eng. B. at
‘“Chiefswood,”? Six Nation Indian
Reserve, Co. Brant, Ont., she was ed.
by private tuition and at the Brant-
ford Model Sch. Her first verses
appeared in the ‘‘Gems of Poetry,”
N. Y., and since then she has been
a frequent contributor to the Can.
and Am. periodical press. ‘* Her
best poems,” writes one of her biog-
raphers, ‘‘ the ones in which there is
the greatest life and fire, are those
on Indian subjects, canoeing, Can.
scenery, etc, Into her poems of
this class, ‘The Death Cry,’ ‘A|
Cry from an Indian Wife,’ ‘As
Red Men Die,’ ‘The Idler,’ ‘In
the Shadows,’ ‘In April,’ she has
thrown all her heart. They possess |
an irresistible passion and ardour. |
Nothing stronger than ‘As Red Men |
Die,’ was ever published in Can.;
nothing more sympathetic with na- |
ture, and hence more thoroughly |
artistic than ‘In April.’ And as |
regards prose, one has but to read |
such a sketch as ‘Prone on the

the harp-strings of human nature.”
Miss J. visited Eng., 1894, and while
there published ‘* The White Wam-
pum,” a collection of about two-
score poems. She made her first
appearance as a reciter of her own
poems in 1891, and has since then
appeared in many Can. and Am.
cities. During the season, 1893-94,
she gave the remarkable number of
125 recitals in 50 different places.
More recently she has recited in the
U. 8., and on the Pacific Coast, in
company with Owen A. Smiley, an
King. entertainer. In 1896 she won
the Ist prize of the 3 offered by the
Industrial League, for the best cam-
paign song for the Dom. g. els. It
was entitled, ‘‘ The Good Old N. P.”

KEEFER, Charles Henry, ©.1., is
the eld. s. of 'T. Keefer, C.M.G.
(q.v.). B. at Pideau Hall, Ottawa,
May 7, 1851, he studied for his pro-
fession under his father. He began
the practice o' engineering, 1869, on |
a preliminary survey for the Ottawa |
Water-works, and wa: employed

the same year on another survey,
for the Dom. Dept. of Public Wor ks.
In 1870 he was engaged on the con-
struction of the Can. Pac. Ry. be-
tween Ottawa and Carleton Place,
and, in 1871, on the construction of
the Chaudiére branch of the St.
Lawrence and Ottawa Ry. From
1871 to 1875 he was engaged on the
construction of the Ottawa Water-
works, and, for 2 yrs. thereafter,
on the location of surveys for the
Can. Pac. Ry. in the Yellow Head
Pass, Rocky Mts. After devoting
several yrs, to harbour works and the
surveys for the ship channel between
Montreal and Quebec, and bridge
and ry. work, he took charge of
work in connection with the location
and construction of branches in
Penn. of the N.Y., Lake Erie and
Western Ry., and of the construc-
tion on that line of the well-known
Kinzua Viaduct, 301 ft. in height and
2053 ft. in length. Subsequently,

he was nn on the construc-

tion of the Can. Pac. Ry. in the Kick-
ing Horse Pass, B.C. He was then
engaged in canal work, and was in
general practice in Toronto for some |
time. At present he is making re-
ports on water-works, sew erage,

he was first employed on thes survey
of the G. T. Ry., Vaudreuil and
Ottawa branch, 1856, and after-
wards on the Brockville and Ottawa
branch, under his uncle, the late
Subsequently,
he became an engr. on the Grand
Junction Ry., from Belleville to
Peterboro’, and he made the first
exploration for a direct line of ry.
from Ottawa to Toronto (now the
C. P. route). Entering the govt.
service, 1872, he was employed in
the preliminary surveys for the Can.
Pac. Ry., in the Rocky Mts. through
the Yellow Head Pass, and remained
in that service until the « completion
of the B. C. sec. by the Govt. and its
transfer to the CU. P. Ry. Co., 1886.
He constructed cae of the heaviest
sections in the Fraser River can-
yons--on which a station named
‘* Keefers” is established. He
has since constructed the water-
works for the city of Vancouver, by
bringing the water of the Capitano
River from the mts. on the north side
of Burrard Inlet, by a submerged
pipe ina rapid tideway. He has
also constructed dykes and drainage
works in B, C., and is now engaged
in genl. practice there. When the
Russian engrs. examined — the
. previous to the commence
ment of their Siberian road, they
offered a Can. syndicate a contract
for the terminal section on the
Pacific at Vladivostock, at prices
which induced the syndicate to send
over an engr. toexamine and report
upon the question, Mr, K. being
selected for this purpose. He took
steamer from Victoria to Japan, and
thence to Vladivostock, going ovei
the proposed route between that sea-

| port and the Amoor River, and re-
| porting thereon to his employers on

his return, Mr. K. is a mem. of

KEEFER, Thomas Coltrin, C.E., is
grandson of an Alsatian Huguenot,
who came to Am. in early life, set-
tling in the Brit. Province of N. J.,
and who afterwards served in
Brit. army during the Am. revolu-
tionary war. 8. of Geo. Keefer, a
U. E. Loyalist, by his wife, Jane, dau.
of Edward McBride, who represented
the town of Niagarain the Parlt. of
U. G., he was born at Thorold, Ont.,
Nov. 4, 1821, and received his ed. at
U.C. Coll, At 17 he commenced his
carecr as an engr., being first em-
ployed on the Rrie Canal. Trans-
ferring his services, soon afterwards,
to the Welland Canal, he remained
connected with that work until 1845.
He was then engaged to take the
chief position in connection with the
Ottawa River works, the principal
object being to fac ilitate the im-
mense lumber trade of that river
and its tributaries. He carried on
these works up to 1849,
important improvements which are
in use to this day, and giving every
satisfaction to those interested. In
1849 he produced his ‘ Philosophy
of Railways,” a work which had an
immediate influence on the policy of
the Govt. in respect to the construc-
tion of railways in Can. In the fol-
lowing year, he won Lord Elgin’s
prize for the best essay on “The

Influence of the Canals of Can. on
her Agric: Iture,” and in this was
5

the first to advocate a moderate sys-
tem of protection such as would
develop native industries in his
native country. He has subsequently
published various other essays, lec-
tures, reports and papers, a full list
of which is given in the ‘ Bibliog-
raphy of the Roy. Soc. of Can.,” of
which body he was elected a Fellow,
1891, and of which he was elected
V.-P., 1897. Included among these
are a monograph favouring the con-
struction of the Can. Pac. Ry. (1869),
and one dealing with Can, water-
ways from the Great Lakes to the
Atlantic (1894). Re-entering the
service of the Govt., 1850, he was

examining the river below Quebec
for a Harbour of Refuge, and in ex-
pens routes with a view to the
yuilding of a canal or ry. between

| the St. Lawrence and the Upper St.

John waters of Lake Temiscouata.
Later, he assisted I. D. Andrews, an
ardent advocate of reciprocity with
the U. S., in the preparation of his
reports on the trade of B, N. A.,
which reports had an important in-
fluence in securing the Reciprocity
Treaty of 1854. On the termination
of this work, he was engaged in
making prelimin: wy surveys for the
Grand Trunk Ry. between Montreal
and Toronto, At the same time he
made a report and prepared plans as
to the feasibility of bridging the St.
Lawrence River at Point St. C harles,
Montreal. The result of this was the
construction of the Victoria Bridge,
which was undertaken on the survey
and report of Mr. K. At a later
period, he was employed in con-
structing water-works for the cities
of Montreal, Hamilton, Ottawa and

elsewhere. He was the engr. of the
Montreal Harbour Comn. for some

yrs., and was the first to propose the
dredging of the channel at Lake St.
Peter to a depth of more than 164

feet. He afterwards served as Chair-
man of the Royal Comn. on Ice
Floods. Owing to his efforts, the

change of the narrow gauge to the
standard gauge on rys. in Can. was

a grand-dau. of the late Dr. Thos.
Keegan, a native of Irel., who re-
moved to U. C. from Halifax, N.S.,
1833. B. in Hamilton, Ont., Miss
K. was ed. at the Convent in Belle-
ville, and afterwards at the Sa-
cred Heart, Montreal. At an early
age she showed marked dramatic
ability, and as a consequence felt a
strong desire to adopt the stage as
a profession, Her friends did not,
however, at once approve of the
idea, and before any definite con-
clusion was reached, Miss K. was
sent to France for the purpose of
completing her education. In Paris
she was placed under the care of M,
and Mme. de l’Aubiniere, the well-
known Can. painters, who enter-
tained a strong friendship for her.
They were both convinced that her
talents lay in the direction of the
stage, and, acting on their advice,
her mother finally consented to her
becoming an actress. She soon
after went to Eng. and made her
first appearance at the Theatre
Royal, Margate, with Sarah Thorne’s
stock co. She became leading lady

of this organization, and oppor-
tunity favouring her, she subse-

quently went to London and made
her début there at the Royalty

range of her versatility. Her next
important ré/e was that of Blanche
Tremaine in ‘The Black Cat,” by
Dr. Todhunter, a play that re-
ceived the confirmation of the Ind.
Theatre Soc. of London. As the
adventuress of the piece, Miss K.
gained nothing but praise for a
charming pourtrayal of a very diffi-
cult part. Miss K. has since made
a tour in Eng. with one of Beerbohm
Tree’s cos., and in Oct., 1895, ap-
peared in London again, where she
scored a success as Grace Roseberry

Winnipeg Sun. He is s widely know n
as the author of many clever songs
aud of patriotic and humorous verse,
written under the nom de plume of
“The Khan.” Chief among his
poems are the ‘‘ Men of the North-
ern Zone,” which has been set to
music; ‘* Canada First”; the ‘‘ Fron-
tier Way”; ‘‘ Ya-houk”; ‘The

Wabagoon”; ‘All Night Long”; |
& 8 8

‘*Peepy,” ete. These appeared
originally in the World, Tclegram
and Globe, Toronto, and have since
been included in a volume from
his pen publi shed in 1896 with the
title: ““The Khan’s Canticles.” It
was the opinion of the late Sir John
Macdonald that if Can. ever went
to war our soldiers would march
to battle singing the ‘‘ Men of the
Northern Zone.” The wide popu-
larity of some of ‘'The Khan’s”
poems was attested by the late Mr.
Biainv, Am. Secy. of State, who,
in jatroducing him to a friend,
cid so in these terms: ‘‘ This is the

young Canuck who a hundred years |

hence will be known to fame as the
author of ‘When Daddy comes
home with his’ wages!’” ‘The
Khan ” has likewise published ‘* The
Tattleton Papers” (1894). The ori-
gin of his nom de plume is given as
follows: At a ball given by some
French-Can. friends, he was intro-
duced to a young lady who found it
difficult to pronounce his name.
She naively said she would break
the name in two and pronounce one-
half of it at a time, and so, for the
rest of the evening, she called him
‘*M’siour Khan.” A newspaper
man, overhearing Mr. K. so ad-
dressed, readily accepted the name
on his behalf, and, on the following
day, attached it to one of his bal-
lads in the Toronto World. It
stuck. Mr. K. was born a farmer,
and is fond of tree-planting. In
politics, he is a Cou., but he believes
only in Can, He is inimical to no
one but the annexationist. He be. |
lieves that the day is not far distant |

when liberty, literature and virtue, |

civilization and religion, and the
arts and sciences will find their

| only ‘asylum among ‘‘ ‘hin men 5 ad the
' Northern Zone.” The only office
/he has ever filled is that of vestry
| clerk, —‘‘ Rushdale Farm,” Rockton,
| Ont,

‘*Possesses the most decided poetical
vein of alkour Can. verse writers.”—John A,

Ywan,

‘*« The Men of the Northern Zone’ is far
and away the best national poem ever writ-
ten in Can.” —Telegram. }

‘Writes poetry as the bird sings—be-
cause he cannot help it; and ris verse has
all the varying charm of humour’ , pathos and
naturalness.” ~~ Week.

work under the nom de pluine of ‘The

Olive Shelley, widow of Elias Wall-
bridge (U. EK. L.). B. in Amelias-
burg, 1836, he received his early
education at Newtonville, under the
Rev. Dr. Ormiston (Presb.), after-
wards entering Victoria Univ., Co-
bourg (B.A., 1855; M.A., 1858 ;
LL.D., 1887). His legal studies
were carried on in the office of
Smith & Armour, Cobourg, the last-
named being now Chief-Justice of
Ont. He was called to the bar,
1859, and has practised throughout
in the town of Cobourg. For many
yrs. he has enjoyed the largest
legal business in Northumberland

majority. Mr. K. was an unsuc-
cessful candidate for the same rid-
ing, 1878, 1882 and 1885, being
defeated by narrow major ities owing
to the influence of the N. P., and
the opportune building of Govt.

works in his constituency in 1882
and 1885. In 1887 and 1891 he was
again offered the nomination, but
declined. Previous to the g. @.

name is now mentioned in connec-

work on this road had terminated,
Mr. K., whose tastes had always
been literary, and who had con
tributed much to periodical liteva-

active public life, 1871, being then
returned to the Quebee Assembly
for Drummond and Arthabaska by
a majority of 1000 over his Con.
bh arity K. J. Hemming. ‘ His
début in the Legislature” says the
Toronto Globe, ‘is said by those
whose memories go back to that

‘iy -
time to have produced a sensation,
;not more by the finished grace of

his oratorical abilities than by the
boldness and authority with which
he handled the deepest political
problems.” The effect of ‘his fluent,
cultivated and charming discourse ”
is described by Frechette, the poet,

as magical. ‘‘ On the following day,”

he writes, ‘‘ the name of Laurier was
on every lip and all who then heard
it will remember how those two
syllables, in their heroic suggestive-
ness, rang out true and clear—their
tone that of a coin of gold, pure
from all alloy, and bearing the
impress of sterling worth.’ At the
g. & 1874 he resigned his seat ir
the Legislature and was returned by
the same constituency to the Ho.
of Commons. When Parlt. met he
was selected to second the address
in reply to the Speech from the

Throne, the late Chief-Justice Moss
being the mover. His speech on

that occasion it has been said marked
him for early appt. to the Cabinet.

yrs. calmly awaited the change in
political sentiment which was to

restore the reins of power to the
hands of the Lib. age} The

which would naturally bar the way to
leadership and popularity in the case

of a public man whose native tongue |
is French, but who aspires to rule a |

community predominantly English,

L. has done successfully ; the influ-
ence he had with his immediate po-
litical associates has been increased
by his enlarged acquaintance and
prestige among the people. During
the past few yrs. his political ac
tivity has been great ; he has ad-

of character which some of his op-
ponents declared to be lacking in
him. As a party leader and tacti-

|cian, his political supporters admit

that he has yet to make his first
mistake. Many thought that his
political career was ruined when the
Bishops of Quebec issued their man-
date enjoining the Roman Catholics
of that Province to vote against
him on account of his position on
the Man. School question. Because
he favoured the conciliation instead
of the coercion of that Province,
he was denounced as a traitor to
his race, and an enemy of the Ch.;
bet he remained firm, and the over-
whelming majority of his own
people declared their faith in him
and their resentment of the atti-
tude of the Bishops. Through his
manliness and courage a new and
inspiring chapter in the history of
French-Can, has been written.” Mr.

Sch. question, and he was one of
a Comte. of Council apptd. in the
autumn to conduct negotiations with
several delegates from the Man.
who were sent to Ottawa to
determine on a basis of settlement.
The report of the delegates with the
subsequent action taken thereon by
the Provl. Govt. and Legislature are
of history. The question
seems now to have been finally re-
moved from the domain of Can. poli-
tics. Mr. L. met Parlt. in Aug., and

he submitted a new fiscal policy |

for the Dom., the most prominent
feature in wich was that accord-

with Gt, Brit. The new tariff met
with little opposition from Parlt.,
and was enthusiastically received
by the people at large. In the
month of June, Mr. L. left for Eng.,
on the invitation of H. M.’s Govt.,
to take part with other of H. M.'s
subjects in the celebration of the
Queen’s Diamond Jubilee. He was
accorded a reception in the Mother
Country almost regal in its character,

Sovereign, The Universities of Ox-

degrees upon him, and the Cobden

Club admitted him to hon. member- |

ship and awarded him its gold
auihat: ‘fin recognition of his excep-
tional and distinguished services to
the cause of internl, and free ex-
change.” Proceeding to France, he
visited Presdt. Faure at Havre, and
was apptd. by H.E.,a Grand Officer
of the Legion of Honour. Later, he
was received at the Vatican by His
Holiness the Pope. As an orator
Sir W. Laurier took a first place
everywhere, the London Daily Mail
comparing him with some of the
foremost Brit. statesmen, and ex-
pressing a wish that it were possible
to place him side by side with them
in the Imp. Parlt. In his first speech,
on landing in Eng., Sir W. predict-

ed that the time was approaching |

‘‘when Can. pride and aspiration |

would develop a claim to demand as

a right, their share in that broader |
citizenship which embraces the whole |
Empire, and whose legislative centre |

is the Palace of Westminster.” While
in Eng., Sir W. succeeded in hav-
ing the commercial treaties between
Brit. and Germany and Belgium de-
nounced, with a view to freeing Can.
from the restraint placed upon her
by these treaties, which prevented
her from granting to Gt. Brit. any
trade favours denied to the treaty

owers ; and for this new departure
in Imp, policy, with ‘the marvellous
goal to which it leads,” the London
Times said, ‘* Laurier’s name must
live in the annals of the Brit, Em
pire.” On their return to Can. in
Sept., Sir W. and Lady L. were ac-
corded public receptions in Quebec,

| Montreal, Ottawa and Toronto, which

excelled in enthusiasm and splen
dour any demonstrations previously
given in Cun, After his return he re
ceived from Toronto Univ., and from
Queen’s Univ., Kingston, the hon.
degree of LL.D, He was also elected
an hon, life mem. of the National
Lib. Club, London, Eng. While in
Opposition, Mr. L. was engaged for

‘some yrs. in writing a history of

Can., from the Union of 1841, but
this has not yet been published, A

1851 he established himself in
Chatham, Ont., as a watchmaker,
but subsequently moved to Owen
Seund. From an early age he had
a great fascination for guns and
shooting. About 1860, he became
the principal of an establishment at
Milwaukee, Wis., for the manufac-
ture and sale of guns, rifles, and other
weapons. ‘this was the commence-
ment of his career as an inventor,

tested the weapon in every way, re-
ported favourably, and one western
regt. was equipped with it. But
nothing further came of it, the in

wanted was money enough to push
it through. Still coutinuing his im-
provements, Mr. L. allied himself
with Col. Metford, an Eng. offr., and

He commenced business in 1877 in |
partnership with Mr. MeGaw, but |
at the end of 5 yrs. left that

notice, and he has since run
a very successful career. Among |
the edifices that have been erected

he was matriculated, He graduated |
from Toronto Univ., 1862, with the |
degree of B.A. and the gold medal |

his degree of M.A. Almost im- |
mediately after his graduation he |
was apptd. one of the teachers in |

|

|

his attention to Classics, but his
chief work was the teaching of |
Math. Prof. Cherriman was then |
at the head of the dept. of Math. |
in the Univ., and for some yrs. Mr. |
L. occupied the position of asst. to
him. When the former retired,
1875, Mr. L. became Prof. of Math.
in his stead. From the very first |
he showed a disposition to run into |
Applied Math. in preference to Pure |
Math., and when, in 1887, the sub- |
ject of his chair, which was then
known as the chair of Math. and |
Physics, was divided, he took the
physical work, while Prof. Baker |
became Prof. of Math. In 1865,
while he was tutor, Prof. L. became |
Dean of Residence, a position which
he retained for 10 yrs., or until he
became a prof., and during that
time he displayed those administra-

LUCAS, Rev. Daniel Vannorman
(Meth.), calls himself a Canadian of |
the 4th generation, his great-grand- | fre
father having emigrated with his
family from Dublin, I[rel., nearly a in
century anda half ago, He settled
at Boston, Mass., but at the time
of the Am. revolution, removed to
Can. B. near Niagara Falls, July
12, 1834, he was ed. ata common
sch., and afterwards at Victoria
Univ. Ordained to the ministry,
1862, he was sent as a mission, to | EH.
B. ©., where he remained for 2 |
yrs. Returning east, he laboured
in various fields—country, town and
city. In Montreal, where he be-
came a pastor tirst in 1874, and after
wards in i578, he took an active
part in endeavouring to diminish
the evils of the liquor traffic, and
by the unanimous vote of the Temp.
Alliance, and of his Conf., was
apptd. to an office where he could
render the most important services
to the temp. cause. His experience
and observation gave him such an

traffic that he resolved to devote
his whole time and attention to it.
In 1887 he was invited by the
Victorian Temp. Alliance to go to
Australia and assist in a year’s cam-
paign there to secure the passage of |
a local option measure through
Parlt. His mission resulted suc-
cessfully, and opened the way for a
second and even more fruitful visit |
to the Australian colonies at a later |
date. Proceeding to Eng. by way |
of the Red Sea, through
Italy and France, he co-operated
with the United Kingdum Alliance
in opposing the objectionable com-
pensation clauses in the proposed
rew local Govt. Bill. While in

LYMAN, Lt.-Col. Theodore, retired
listCan. V. M., is a direct descendant
of Richard Lyman, who emigrated
to Mass. from Essex, Eng., 1635. B.
in Northampton, Mass., Mch. 27,
1818, he was ed. there, and came to
Montreal, where he was long engaged
in business, 1833. In 1837 he joined

a special guard that was then organ-

ized for the protection of the city.
The guard eventually became No. 1

Co, Montreal Volunteer Rifles. Col. |
L. was a private in this corps, and he |

served continuously in the mil. ser-
vice of Can. from that time (1837) up
to the period of his retirement from

the force as a It.-col., Jan. 28, 1876. |

He may, therefore, with great pro-
priety be called one of the ‘* fathers”
of the militia organization of the
Dom. At the time of the ‘‘Oregon”
difficulty, 1845, he was gazetted

formed No. 1 Co. Montreal Rifles,
| and was the first to be raised under
| the new law in the Province of L. C,
It was drafted into the Ist or Prince
of Wales Rifle Regt., and became
No. 1 Co, in that well-known corps.
As a reward for this service he was
promoted to a majority. Subse-
| quently, he was offered a comn. in
the newly raised 100th Regt. of the
line, but was unable to accept it. In
| 1860 he was apptd. Asst. Q. M.-Genl.
of the V. M. force, and took tempo-

appt. to the judicial bench. Mr. M.
entered political life, June, 1863, as

body up to the Confederation of the
Provinces, 1867, when he was called

of Parlt. on the codification of the
criminal laws, which reported the
present Criminal Code of the Dom.,
and for his services as such received
the special thanks of the then Mr. of
Justice, Sir John Thempson. He
became Speaker of the Senate, Oct.
17, 1883, and continued to fill that
office up to the close of the 5th Parlt.,
1887. In 1886 he was offered the
leadership of the Senate by the then
Prime Minister, Sir John Macdonald,
and later, in 1884, on the retirement
of Sir Chas. Tupper from the Cabi-

man to be his successor therein. He
was sworn of the Queen’s Privy

Govt., 1890, and was recommended |

by the Ont. Govt. to define the

.-W. boundary of the Province,
1872, and his professional services
were retained in conducting the
argument on vis subject before the
Imp. Privy Council, 1884. He was
also retained by the Ont. Govt. in |
the Ct. of Appeal end in the Su-
weme Ct. in the question of the |
fates Titles, and also in the case |
as to the appt. of Queen’s Counsel.
The author of several brochures on
political subjects, Mr. M. has like-
wise written extensively on public
questions for the mags. and news-
papers, and he was for 5 yrs. sub-
sequent to 1882, ed.-in-chief of the
London Advertiser. Many beautiful
poetical pieces have also emanated
from his pen. He was elected a
mem. of the Council of Public Inst.
of Ont. (representing the Sch.
Insprs. in that body), 1875, and on |
a new faculty of law being estab-
lished in the Univ. of Toronto, 1888, |
was chosen to fill the chair of Con- |
stitutional and Intern]. Law therein, |
a position he still retains. In 1897
he was also chosen an Examr., in Con- |
stitutional Law in the same Univ. |
He was elected Presdt. of the Star
Loan Co., 1990, and Presdt. of the
Northern Life Assur. Co., 1896. |

During the existence of the Mac.
kenzie Govt., he held the office of Mr.
of the Interior in it, from Oct., 1876 |
till the resignation of the Cabinet, |
Oct., 1878. He was called to the |
Senate, by Lord Aberdeen, Nov., |
1896, and, on Nov. 12, 1897, entered

the Laurier Cabinet as Mr. of Jus-

tice, succeeding Sir O. Mowat in that |
office, Politically, he is an advanced |
Lib. As a private mem. he moved, |
in Mch., 1895, for the reconstruc- |
tion of the Senate. His political |
views were summed up in a review of

his career, which appeared in the |
Toronto Globe, Dec. 27, 1894. From |
this we make the following extract : |
‘*He has always been an opponent |
of a nominated Senate. He is, how- |

| to the

ever, still a second Chamber man,
and wants to mend rather than end
our Upper House, Holding the
high political ideals which he does,
and believing that the worst crime
against the commonwealth is a
wrong against the ind, of the elec.
torate, it need scarcely be said that
the partizan redistribution of con
stituencies and the partizan pre
paration of voters’ lists find in
him one of their most powerful
denouncers. In economic questions
he is an uncompromising oppo-
nent of the protective system. He
believes Can. ought to make her
own commervial treaties, and a few
months ago the breadth of his mind
on the Imp. relationship was shown
ina magazine article, in which he
argued that, while the Motherland
gives the protection of her navy to
the commerce of the colonies in the
seas of the world, it is conducive
neither to their self-respect or self-
reliance that they should make no
substantial return for that service,
but that they should, on the con-
trary, seek to shut Brit. trade out of
their markets. He is opposed to
reget over the work of legislation

Ministry, as is now so largely
done at Ottawa. Some of his: most
valuable contributions to our politi-
cal literature have been upon this
and kindred subjects, whose im-
portance is scarcely appreciated by
minds which do not go to the root of
diseases in the body politic. His
study of the foundation principles
of representative govt. pointed out
to him yrs. ago the effect, now ap-
parent, upon the whole community
of Parlt. abdicating its duty of effec-
tive supervision over national expen-
ditures and control of the national
Executive. If the advice with which
he has sought on every available occa-
sion to inculcate sound political prin-
ciples had been accepted by Parlt.,
of whose dignity he is a jealous up-
holder, it would not have become,
as it unfortunately is, a mere record-
ing machine for legalizing the actions
of its Execut To sum up kis
politics, they ce, that care and

economy in the expenditure of pub
lie money, anda deirs to do what
is honest and fair on the part of re-
presentatives ; habits of self-reliance
and ind. among the people, and a
sense of justice stronger than party
allegiance, are of immeasurably
greater consequence im = promoting
the honour and prosperity of Can.
than political nostrums which pro-
pose to increase wealth by imposing
taxation, to invite immigration by !
un enormous public debt, and to cle-
velop the country by reckless ex-
penditure whose only purpose is to |
corrupt constituencies,” In religious
faith, Mr. M. is a Meth. He m.

been with him a chess-hoard, where knights

MILLS, James, educationist, is the |
s, of John Mills, by his wife, Ann Stin
son, both natives of the north of Ire}. |
B. in West Gwillimbury, Simcoe, |
Ont., Nov. 24, 1840, he was brought |
up on his father’s farm. A serious ac-
cident forméd theturning- point in his
career. At 21 he lost his right arm
in a threshing machine, and thus
handicapped, he stood upon the |
threshold of his life-work with re- |
sponsibility, and, what some would
call disaster, staring him in the face.
Enteriag the public sch, he began
his education at the time when the
majority of young men have already |
finished. Hitherto his training had |
been entirely manual or physical ;
now he began to develop the mental |
side of his nature. From the public |
sch. he proceeded to the Bradford |
(rammar Sch., and thence to Vic- |
toria Univ., Cobourg (B.A., and |

After graduation he taught in the
Cobourg Coll. Inst., from which posi-
tion he was promoted to the head
inastership of the Brantford High
Sch. This institution was then in
rank a third or fourth rate sch.;
under Mr, M, it soon became a Coll,
Inst., and began to attract atten-
tion as one of the most successful for

| training young men and women for
' general work and for teachers’ and

univ, exams. The growth of this
sch, and its reputation for thorough-
ness and good discipline, suggested

}a man for the Provl. Agricultural

Coll., at Guelph, when the presi-

| dency hecame vacant. The offer
came to Mr. M, from the Govt. en-

tirely unsolicited, and was accepted
in the summer of 1879. The institu-
tion had been established in 1874,
and for some time had many and
great difficulties to contend with.
Under Mr. M. most of these obstacles
have been overcome, and the Coll.
has been established on a tirm foun-
dation. The work of the Coll. has

| likewise been enlarged and system-

atized. Particular attention has
heen called to the addition of a third
year’s course and affiliation with To-
ronto Univ. whereby the degree of
fach. of Science in Agricul. is con-
ferred upon students. The Province
is also indebted to the Principal for

|organizing the Farmers’ Insts., and

for instituting Travelling Dairies.
To him likewise was entrusted the

| preparation of a text-book on agri

eul, fer public schs., called ‘‘ First
Principles of Agricul.” Recently
he has contributed some able papers
to Farming, and he wrote the paper
on ‘‘Agricul, Education” which ap-
peared in the hand-vook issued to

great service in the very important

| negotiations with which tha dele-

gates were charged by their re-
spective Govts. In the g.e. in
N. 5., which followed the passing
of this Act, Mr. M. took an active
part; and although the anti-Con-
federates won the day, Mr. M. per-
sisted, during the darkest hours, in
urging the Legislature and the
people to accept the Union. His
speeches during the interval be-

| tween the first and second confedera-

political oratory, and with the in-
fluence which his abilities enabled
him to exercise over the Lt.-Gov. of

were beyond all question the most
important factors in securing the

fact, Mr. M. in his despatches in
this connection gave the key-note
to that bold and national attitude
in dealing with the encroachments
of the U. 8., which enabled more
recent Can. Govts. to secure the
influence and hacking of the Imp.

versity St., Montreal,

MORGAN, Miss Mary, poet, is a|
native of Scot., but in childhood re-
moved with her family to Montreal,
where her father and uncle estab-

lished the well-known dry goods |
house of Henry Morgan & Co, Till |

her father’s death, in 1893, her life
was spent in Milton Cottage, on the |
banks of the St. Lawrence, a few |
miles below Montreal. Both the
father and the dau. attracted a
large circle of friends to this de-
lightful home, which formed for
many yrs. a favourite resort for
people of literary tastes and sym-
pathies. About 20 yrs. ago, Miss
M. began to publish some of her
literary work in Can. and Am.

periodicals, generally under the |

pseudonym of ‘Gowan Lea.” In
1887 she collected a number of her
most appreciated productions in a
dainty little volume, of which an
Am. edition appeared very shortly

afterwards, under the title of |

‘*Woodnotes in the Gloaming.”

‘“Her best work,” says Prof. J.
Clark Murray, ‘‘is in the lyrical
vein; and the moods ot the soul,
for which she seems to fin’ expres-
sion by preference in her lyrics. are

not the more boisterous passions by |
is most)
commonly stormed, but rather those

which the human _ heart

delicate calm emotions that are
naturally awakened by the rarer
reflections of a cultured mind.” In
18% Miss M. published ‘‘ Sonnets |
from Switzerland.” Some of her

compositions have been reproduced
in ‘*America’s Younger Poets,” e
volume published at Philadelphia.
She originally desired to study Med.,

but her ambition in that direction
was thwarted by the objections |
of friends and the inability of Me-
Gill Univ. to grant a degree to a
woman at that time. Of late she
has travelled sxtensively in Europe,
and is now (1897) living in Devon-
shire, Eng. Miss M. calls herself a

was called to the bar, 1841. He
entered on the practice of his pro-
fession in Kingston, but soon after-
wards moved to Toronto and formed
a partnership with his late principal,
Mr. Burns. Mr. Vankoughnet (sub-
sequently Chancellor of Ont.), was
afterwards admitted to the firm,
which was known under the name of
Burns, Mowat & Vankoughnet. On
Mr. FPurns’ retirement to a judge-
rulp, 1848, the remaining partners

continued the business. Subse- |

quently, Mr. M. had as partners, at
cienent periods, the late John
Ewart, the late John Helliwell, the
late John Roaf, thelate Wm. Davi: 4,
the late John Downie and the pres-
ent Mr. Justice Maclennan. His
present firm is composed of him-
self, of Thos. Langton, Q.C., H. M.
Mowat and R. J. Maclennan. At

the bar, Mr. M. confined himself

chiefly to equity practice, He soon
obtained a high reputation as a
lawyer, and, while in active practice,

was long the leader of the Chancery |

bar. It is recorded that many of the
cases argued by him are to-day liv-
ing authorities on topics of equity
jurisprudence. Created a Q. C. by
Sir Kk. W. Head, 1855, he became,
later, a Bencher of the Law Soc.
From 1856 to 1859 he served on
the comu. apptd. to consolidate the
public general statutes of Can, and
U. C. respectively, and he was also,
ata subsequent period, a comnr. for
the consolidation of the statutes of
Ont. Politically, he was, in early
life, surrounded with Con. influences,
but he himself, as Mr. Adam re-
lates ‘‘chose that broad-minded,
moderate Liberalism, of which he
has ever since been so able an ex-
ponent and so steadfast a promoter.”
After serving as an ald. in the Town
Council, he was, in 1857, elected to
Parlt. as mem. for South Ontario,

and continued to represent that con- |

stituency till 1864, In the Assembly

Messrs. Brown and Dorion, as Provl.
Secy. In 1863 he entered the Sand-
field Macdonald Govt. as Postmaster-
i Genl., continuing as such until the
| defeat of the ministry in the early
part of 1864. Later, in the same
year, on the formation of the coali-
| tion govt. under Sir E. P. Taché, for
the purpose of effecting the political
union of B.N.A., he, together with
| the Hon. Geo. Brown and the Hon.
Wm. Macdougall, was chosen to
‘enter therein as representatives of
‘the Lib. party of U. C. He sat in
‘the Union Conf , that assembled in
| Quebec, Oct. 10, 1864, and took an
‘active part in framing the constitu-

their appreciation of ‘‘ the splendid

public man, placed upon the walls of |

events of his Adma., in his farewell
address to the electors of North Ox-
ford, July, 1896, he said: ‘ Pro-

ing that my vosition afforded me the

the opportunity of rendering sub-

on the statute book a vast body of
useful legislation, and towards giv-
ing to the Province 28 yrs. and
more of just, prudent, economical
ard clean administration of public
affairs, Asmy memory recails what
has been done by the Reform Govt.

greatly to my satistaction to know
that the people of North Oxford ap-
preciate the course of my colleagues

ways been thorough sympathy be- |

to his eminent standing and services

on Ont. lies in the belief that he is
ja safs man. Pre-eminently, he is a
man to be trusted, In temperament
| he is Conservative, by study and re-
flection a Reformer, His views ure
‘always abreast of the advanced
thought of the day, but the course
of legislation in this Province has
shown with what shrewdness he ex-
amines the popular movements which
spring up from time to time, and
with what sure-footedness he picks
his way «mong the pitfalls which lie
in wait for unwary legislators, ham-
mering the while into law whatever
cf value may be found in them. His
Admn. has passed safely through 6
general elections. His long term of
| power constitutes an era in the life
of Ont. He has succeeded in almost
living down opposition. Twenty-
'four yrs. of power have left him
with a reputation of stainless integ-
|vity. His personal character mrs
'so high that the least scrupulous
of his opponents prefer no charge
against him that savours of corrup-
tion or dishonesty. He has always
; surrounded himself with able and
| admirable colleagues, but his person-
ality easily dominated the Cabinet,

of Provincial affairs. His intellect

| void, but it is the wholesome wis-

spoke, and carries with it no deroga-
| tion of respect or confidence, His
| opponents call him an opportunist.
Whatever of opportunism he has is
of the serious, earnest kind. It has
been a disappointment at times to his
opponents that his purity of notives
and fulness of mind should not be

| livered him into their hands, It is

From
the service of the Can. Govt. as an
engr. During this pr of over
37 yrs. Mr. M. has beer placed in
various important positions, a 7é-
sumé of which is as follows: In
1863 he was apptd. one of the Govt.
Insprs. of Rys. In 1864 he was
specially sent to report on the best
means of supplying water to the
Parlt. Buildings at Ottawa, In
1868-69 he examined the east shore
of Lake Huron and the north shore
of Lake Erie with a view to the
establishment of harbours of refuge
on these lakes. In the fall of 1869
he made a part examn, of the east
end of the ‘‘ Dawson” route as a
proposed means of water communi-
cation with the North-West. In
1870-71, he located the new Welland
Canal, and next year (1872), he waa
apptd. in charge of all the enlarge-
ment works. The canal was, how-
ever, subdivided and Mr. M. was
named Supat. of the new line of canal
from Allanburg to Port Dalhousie,
onwhich all the new lift locks are
situated, and remained in charge up
to the end of 1888—the canal having
then been ultimately enlarged to a
draught of 14 ft. In 1889 he was
specially sent by the late Mr. Page,
C.E., to report upon the best loca-
tion for a 14-foot canal between
lakes St. Louis and St. Francis,
After much opposition this was
placed on the north side of the St.
Lawrence, and is now in course of
construction under his superinten-
dence. It was named by him the
‘‘Soulanges Canal.” Several im-
portant changes have been made in
the ple -s of the locks, etc., which it
is beliuved will result in facilitating
the passage of vessels, and at the
same time reduce the cost of the
works. Mr. M. also designed the

MURRAY, George, educationist

and littérateur, is the only s. of the
late Jas. Murray, in his lifetime
foreign ed. of the London Times, and

was b. in Regent Square, London.
He received his early education at |
the sch, of Dr. J.G. Greig, Waltham-
stow, Essex, afterwards matriculat-
ing at King’s Coll., London, where
he took the chaplain’s 2 prizes
for Eng. verse—original and trans-
lated—the Principal’s prize for Latin
verse, the senior classical scholar-
ship, and was elected A.K.C., the
highest honour that could be con-
ferred by the Coll. Proceeding to |
Oxford, he obtained among other
honours the Lusby scholarship and
the Lucy Exhibition. Before taking
his degree, 1860, he published ‘‘ The
Oxford ars Poetica; or, How to Write
a Newdigate,” which was lauded by
the Spectator, and also by the author
of ‘* Verdant Green.” After spend-
ing some yrs. on the Continent, Mr.
M. came to Can., 1859, and was
apptd. shortly afterwards senior Clas-
sical Master of the Montreal High
Sch. This position he held until
1892, when he retired on a pension
and was presented with a handsome |
testimonial by the scholars. Mr. M. |

is one of the literary lights of the
Dom. He has written in both prose
and verse, but is more particularly
known as a poet. In 1869 he won
the gold medal offered by the St.
Andrew’s Soc. of Ottawa, for the
best m on the subject of ‘‘ The
Thistle.” His verses embraced the
old legend of how the thistle saved
the Scottish garrison from surprise
and defeat at the hands of the
piratical Danes, Five yrs. later he
also won the prize given by the Mont-
real Witness for the best ballad on

;any subject in Can. history. On

this occasion there were no fewer
than 291 competitors. The success-
ful work was entitled : ‘‘ How Can-
ada was Saved,” and graphically
describes how a gallant band of
young Frenchmen sought out their
old enemy, the Iroquois, and, like
the ancient Spartans at Thermopyle,
fought desperately until every one
of their number had bitten the dust.
‘Pathos and fire,” says a well-
known Can. writer, ‘‘are beautifull

intermingled in these verses, whic

are probably the most widely known
of all Mr. M.’s productions.” A\l-
though a frequent contributor to the
press, it was not until 1891 that he
published his poems in book form.

| His volume, entitled: ‘* Verses and

Versions,” was dedicated to ‘Sir
Edwin Arnold, my dearest com-
panion for many years.” Comment-
ing on the work the Week said:

Bt hese are real poems and show

real poetic power ; words not to be
lightly used in these days of exuber-
ant versification.” In his ‘‘ Songs
of the Great Dom.,” W. D. Light-
hall pronounces his translations of
the lyrics of Gautier, Hugo, De
Musset, and other French writers,
as the most delicate and precise in

| the Eng. language. Among Mr. M.’s

journalistic enterprises was Dioge-
nes, a serio-comic weekly, and the
Free Lance, both published in Mont-
real, the last-named in conjunction
with the late Geo. T, Lanigan, In
1882 he established ‘*‘ Notes and
Queries” in the Montreal Star, and

also for the Eng. Notes and Queries,
and for Gace a Week, Asaclassical

Royal Soc. of Can., 1882, he was
pj, po by its founder, the Marquis
of Lorne, to be one of the 20 original |
Fellows of the sec, of Eng. Litera-
ture, History, etc. He was Secy.
for some yrs. of the old Montreal

of Hon. T. D. McGee, one of the
Fellows of that Soc., was chosen,
with two others, to edit the literary

' gaged in carrying to completion the

scheme for the union of the B, N. A.
Provinces. The bride was the great

| statesman’s second wife, his tirst wife

(Miss Clark) having d. 1856. It is re-
corded that the union was a happy
one, and resulted advantageously to
public interests. ‘* All that

him throughout the deliberations

there of the Joint High Comn., which |

resulted in the Treaty of Washing-

panied him on his celebrated journey
to B. C., when for the first time he

passed over the ©. P. Ry., uniting |

ocean to ocean, a work whose exis-
tence was largely due to his efforts.

Of this journey she has left a record |

in the series of papers written by her

for Murray's Mag., entitled * By |

Car and Cow-Catcher.”” Among her
other papers in that periodical were :
**On a Can. Salmon River” (1837) ;
‘On a Toboggan ” (1888). She has
likewise written for the Ladies’

Home Journal, the Pall Mall May., |

and other periodicals, and, in 1887,

contributed to the Montreal Star |

two descriptive articles of the ser-
vices and festivities connected with
the celebration of the Queen’s Dia

mond Jubilee in London. On the |
death of Sir John Macdonald, June
6, 1891, Her Majesty was graciously
pleased, in recognition of his dis-
tinguished public services, to grant

the dignity of a peerage to his
widow, by the name, style and title
of Baroness Macdonald of Farns-

cliffe, in the Province of Ont. and |

Dom. of Can. In conveying the

man and of the zealous devotion to

the publie interests manifested by |

the new peeress as wife and widow.

hesitate to proclaim them. In 1857
the publication of the North Ameri
can was discentinued, being merged
in the Toronto Globe, and Mr.
M. joiued the editorial staff of the
last-named journal, After having
led a forlorn hope for the Reformers
in 3 previous contests, he was re-
turned to Parlt. for North Oxford,
1858. He sat for that constituency
till 1863, and was, thereafter, up to
the close of his political vareer, 1882,
the representative successively of
North Ont., North Lanark and Hal
ton. From 1875 to 1878 he held a
seat in the Ont. Legislature, At the
1887, he stood in the Lib. in

and write remarkably well.” “On
the formation of the Sendfield Mac-
donald-Sicotte Admn., May, 1862,
he accepted office therein as Comnr.
of Crown Lands, remaining in that |
position till the resignation of the |
Govt., Mch., 1864. In the same
year, on the defeat of the Con. Govt.
led by Sir E, P. Taché, the latter,
being unable to reconstruct without
a dissolution, offered Mr. M. 3 seats
in the U. ©. sec. of his Cabinet if he
could bring 2 Libs. in with him, but
as Sir Etienne refused to apply the

coalition principle in L. C., the offer |

was declined. On the formation of
the coalition, in June, same year,
which resulted in Confederation,
Mr. M. was one of the 2 Reformers
whom the Hon. Geo. Brown took
with him into the Cabinet, he being
assigned the office of Pr vl. Secy
He ‘was from first to last an active

promoter of the Union, and to no!

one does the term, ‘‘ Father of Con-
federation,” more rightly apply than
to him. He attended the Union
Conf. at Charlottetown, 1884, and
that held at Quebes in the same
year. In 1866-67 he was present at
the Colonial Conf. that satin London,

Hng., when the terms of the Federa- |

tion compact were finally settled. In
1865-66 he served as Chairman of a
Royal Comn. appid. to open trade
relations with the West Indies,
Mexico and Brazi}, On July 1,

1867, he was sworn of the Queen’s |

Privy Couuci; ‘an., and apptd.
Mr. ot Public Wc ‘&s in the Govt.
then formed by Sir John A. Mac-

donald. At the same time he was |

created a Companion of the Order of

the Bath, in acknowledgment of his |
services ia promoting the Union of |
B. N. A. In the autumn of 1368 |

he accompanied Sir Geo, Cartier to
Eng., to confer with the Imp. au-

thorities on several matters of pub- |

lic interest, including the defences
of the Dom. and the acquisition of
the N. W. T.—-the latter a matter

he had always much at heart. The |
nr egotiations, in so far as theyrelated

co the N. W. T., were successful.
The arrangement, as finally com-

| pleted, gave ‘general satisfaction in
| Can. , and received the unanimou
approval of Parlt. Mr. M.’s o's
| in these negotiations, and bis wa.
interest in everything relating ¢ to
the N.-W., led to his appt. as tirst

iotice, on behalf of cert.in French
half-breeds at Fort Garry , forbidding
him to enter the Territory. Later,
he was ejected from the Territory,
and returned to Ovtawa. Mvean-
} while, a provisional govt. had been
| formed at Fort Garry under Louis
Riel, with the dep‘orable results re-
{corded in history. In 1871 Mr. M.
was apptd. a comnr. for Ont. for the
| settlement of the N.-W. boundary
of the Province, and, in 1873, was
sent to England by the Can. Govt.
as a spe cial comar. to confer with:
the Imp. authorities on the subject
| of the Can. Fisheries. He remained
there for some mths., and proceeded
afterwards to the Continent for the
| purpose of making arrangements in
Scandinavia and the Baltic provinces
on behalf of immigration. On his
iyeturn to Can., he resumed his
| law practice, in partnership with his
/son, the present Judge of York, and
| was concerned in several important
cases, notably, the Campbell divorce
| case, and the Mercer will case. In
1881 he declined appt. to a judge-
'ship and also to a It.-governorship.
He has published in pamphlet form :
‘Eight Letters to the Hon. Joseph
Howe on the Red River Rebellion ”
(1870); ‘*Six Letters to the Hon.

was carried to the Privy Council, he |

was sent to Eng., with Christopher
Robinson, Q.C., and D’Alton Me

Carthy, Q.C., on behalf of the Dom.
Govt. As a criminal lawyer he

highly distinguished himself in one |

of the most sensational trials of the |
} } |

century, well known as the Biddulph |

murder case, 1880, in which he
was counsel for the prisoners. Re-
moving to Toronto, 18838, he con
tinued a successful practice in that
city up to his appt. as a Puisne
Judge of the Common Pleas Div. of
the High Ct. of Justice of Ont., Nov.
30, 1887. The case of the most gen
el ral public interest which has come
before him as a judge since his appt
to the Ben h was the trial of John
R. Birchall for the murder of F.
Benwell near Woodstock, Ont., 1890,
the details of which will be fresh in
the recollection of the reader. Of
this case the London Spectator said :
‘“Apart from the special interest
created by the prisoner’s antecedents,
the trial has in many ways been a
remarkable one. For the first time
since the telegraph made sensational
murder trials international the Cana-
dian administration of justice has
undergone the severe ordeal of hav-
ing a crowd of reporters eager to
selZze we and write wp any ‘ incident,’
creditable or discreditable, and occu
pied in throwing a daily reflection of
the proceedings in a provincial
court-house on to the newspaper
sheets throughout the Eng.-speaking | t
world, ‘The test, however, has been

undergone, and the country realizes
that for dignity and impartiality
Canadian trials compare favourably
with those of any country in the
world except Eng. No trial at
any Eng. assizes could have heen
conducted with a more admirable

temper than that at Woodstock in |

Canada. Judge, jury, and counsel,

guished himself in debate, and before
the close of his first session was |
regarded as the rising star of the)
Con, party. ‘His first speech,” |
says Mr. Davin, in his ‘‘ Irishmen in |
Can.,” ‘‘marked him as a inan for
whom all things may be hoped.”
Sir John Macdonald, the Prime |
Minister, spoke of him as ‘‘ the |
brains of the party,” and designated
him its future leader. For 15 yrs.
or more no one, with the possible
exception of Sir Charles Tupper,
possessed the aged statesman’s con-
fidence to the same extent. Out-
side of Parlt. he undertook the
work of organization for his party,
and for a considerable period filled
the office of Chairman of the Ex.
Comte. of the Lib.-Con. Union of
Ont. More than once he declined a
seat in the Cabinet, and more than
once he declined appt. to the high-
est judicial office in the Province.
Mr. McC, broke with his party in
1889, in consequence of the position
taken by the Cabinet on the Mercier
Jesuits’ Estates Act-—a position to
which the almost entire Prot. senti-
ment of the country was opposed.
From this time he assumed an ind.
attitude in politics. He was placed
at the head of the ‘‘ Equal Rights”
movement, and in that character
fought with courage and resolution
for the rights of the people whose
cause he espoused. Later, during
the Thompson, Bowell and Tupper
régimes, he gave battle to all comers
on the Man. Sch. question. Com-
mencing in 1893, he made several
tours through the Dom., addressing
large audiences, sometimes as many
as 3 a day, in opposition to the

dlicy of his former political friends.
He was stigmatized by the leading
marty organ: ‘‘Chief of the wob-
blers,” and read formally out of the
Con. party. His efforts, however,
did not slacken till the last was |
heard of Mr. Dickey’s Remedial Bill |
wich the defeat of the Admn. at the |
polls, in June, 1896. At that elec-
tion Mr. McC. was returned both |
for North Simcoe (which constitu- |
ency he had represented since 1878) |

and for Brandon, in the Province of
Man. Electing to stay with his old
constituents, he resigned the seat for
Brandon. His work as a politivian
being done, for the time, he has since
the meeting of the new Parlt. been
heard from but little, Of late his
name has been mentioned in connec-
tion with a seat in the Laurier
Cabinet. Politically, Mr. McC,
calls himself ‘‘ neither a Tory nor a
Lib.,” but stands to do right. Re-
garding the trade question, his con-
tentions may be summarized as fol
lows: Ist. He has thought, since
1891, that the time had come when,

| according to the policy laid down in

1877-78, sufficient opportunity had
been afforded to manufacturers to
establish their industries, and that
a return should be had to the prin-
ciple of a revenue tariff. 2ndly.
That he was opposed to any recipro-
cal relations with the U. 8. which
involved discrimination against Gt.
Brit. ; short of that, he is pre-

| pared for the freest possible tariff

regulations, not merely in natural
products, but in manufactured ar-
ticles as well, 3rdly. And chiefly,
he was the advocate, and, we may
say, the political parent, of the
maximum and minimum tariff, giv-
ing Brit. and our sister colonies
the preference, which, under the
scheme of the preferential clause,
has been embodied in law by the
Laurier Admn. (see his resolution,
1893). Touching the future of Can.,
he has long since reached the con-
clusion that Can. would find her
truest and best development within
and asa part of the Brit. Empire,
and that Canadians needed no higher
aspiration than appertained to that
position. His opinion is that noth-
ing short of a great war, in which
the Empire would suffer dismember
ment, would change the political
relations in which Can. stands to
the Mother Country. This doss
not ignore the gradual extension of
Canadian political rights until Cana-
dians in all respects stand on an

unhappily too common in election
contests in Can. In the spr ng of
1881 he went to Kurope to iuvesti-
gate the opportunities for introduc-

drilling foroil. Favourably impressed
with his observations, he returned to
Can. for competent men to assist in
the work, and in July, same year,
again went to Austria, accompanied
by several of Petrolea’s most skilful
drillers. After some yrs., his effo. ts
in this new field of endeavour were
crowned with success, and he became
the principal owner of the oil mines

many other important industries in

is of joint Scotch and Lrish descent, |
and was b. at Alton, Ont., Mch. 7, |
1865. His parents removing to

Orangeville, he was ed. there, and,
at 14, was apprenticed to a local
printer. At this time he excelled

as a cornet player, and at a band |

tournament held at Ingersoll carried
off the 3rd prize from 11 competi-
tors. At 17 he was leader of a band
in Petrolea, Removing to the U.58.,
he became head prootreader at the
headquarters of the Am, Bible Soc.
in N.Y. His skill in this difficult
field is evidenced by the peculiar
work he was obliged to perform.
It is stated that he once read the
proof-sheets of a volume containing
| verse of the Bible translated into
242 different languages and clialects.
It is safe to say that a similar task
has fallen to the lot of no other man
on the Am. continent. The burden-
some routine of this position, how-
ever, after a few yrs., became too
irksome for Mr. MclL., and we next
find him associate ed. of the New
York Financier. His literary tastes
and accomplishments thus becoming
known, he soon had more remunera-

“Next to Egerton Ryerson probably Dr
McL, stands out as the one whose personal-
ity is most intimately associated with the
development of the Ont. Sch. system.
While emphasizing the principle of equality

| of opportunity to the children of rich and
| poor alike, he devoted special attention to

the improvement of our High schs. He
realized that to have a high standard of
public education we must have well quali-
fied teachers, and that to this end the
institutions in which these teachers were to

| receive the ground-work of their knowledge

—the High schs.—must be made efficient.

| While Inspr. of secondary schs., Dr. McL.

brought math, teaching up to a magnificent
standard ; and having pineed this branch of
instruction on a sound basis, he next turned
his attention to the value of Eng. Lit. as a
subject of culture for both public and High
schs, Dr. McL. is widely known not only
in Ont. and eastern Can., but also in the
U. S., as a forcible and inspiring lecturer on
educational themes. To his facility of ex-
pression is added the power of a sympa

| thetic manner, a lofty and refined imagina-

tion, and an intensely patriotic spirit which
he never fails to carry with bim when ad-
dressing audiences beyond the borders of his
native land. Before appt. to his present
position, Dr. McL. did a very helpful work
throughout Ont, as dir. of Teachers’ Insts.
His contributions to rational methods of
instruction, and his contagious enthusiasm,
which has done so much to deepen among
teachers a love for their work, are two
prominent and invaluable features of the
service he has rendered. Dr. McL. is just
in the prime of intellectual maturity, and
his recent publications in the science of
pedagogics give ground for the expecta-
tion that, as head of the Normal Coll., he
may long continue to exercise a strong
formative influence on our univ, graduates
who aspire to the duties of the teaching
profession, For what he has already
achieved he may fairly be assigned a leading
place among the men of our time whose
personality has contributed most to the
development of the Ont. Sch, system.”—

of the Royal Comn. apptd, to en
quire into the liquor traffic of the
1895, presented to

report, partly supplemental and

report. In this document (see Ho

insanity and idiocy, and takes up
the question of the responsibility of

the liquor traffic: Amount paid for

McMULLEN, John Mercier, histo- |

rian, was b. in Irel., June 13, 1820.
He is descended, on the paternal
side, from a native of Scot., who
settled in Ulster in the time of
James I., and on the mother’s side,

from a French Huguenot named |
Mercier, who fled from his country |

after the revocation of the Edict of

Nantes, and ultimately settled in!

Irel. Ed. at home, he proceeded to

India, 1848, and saw much of that |

country, his impressions being em-
bodied in a volume which he pub-
lished on his return to Eng., 1846,
in which year he likewise m. Miss
Sarab Charlotte Nesbitt, and took
to farming. Two yrs. of famine,

however, having disheartened him, |

he made a gift of his farm to a rela-

| tive, and sailed for N, Y., intending
lto settle in the U.S. Not liking
that country, he crossed into Can.,
, and finally made bis home in Brock.
ville, Ont., 1849, where he estab-
lished himself in the book trade,
Three yrs. afterwards he added a
printing office to his other business,
jand, in 1857, purchased the plant
land copyright of the Brockville
Monitor--a Con. journal—which he
continued to publish ur till quite
recently, contributing not a little
during his journalistic career to the
ascendaney and continued success
of his party friends. When Mr
MeM. came to this country no gen-
eral history of Can. had been pre
pared, or was in existence, He
determined to meet the want, and
| with this end in view, commenced
collecting facts and other material,
As regards the Province of Ont.,
| the material was exceedingly scanty
and fragmentary; but, after much
research, he was eventually able to
| put its historical narrative together
piece by piece, and, in 1855, the
| lst ed. of his ‘‘ History of Canada”
made its appearance, and met with
/a most encouraging reception. In
1867 he published the 2nd ed.,
| bringing the narrative down to the
|rise of the Dom. In 1892, after 2
yrs. of steady labour in the way of
| revision and continuation, the 3rd
ed. of this work was published,
bringing it down to the death of
'Sir John A. Macdonald, and the
defeat of the Mercier Admn. in
Quebec. His book claimed and ob
tained credit for independence and
honesty, and even when rival works
appeared, held its place in the
| favour of the reading public, espe
cially in Ont. Mr. MeM. is also the
author of a work, ‘The Camp and
Barrack Room; or, the Brit. Army
'as It is”; and he has ed. a work,
published 1882, entitled ‘ Every
Man his own Lawyer.” He has
| been on the commission of the Peace
since 1858, and has more than once
| declined Parliamentary honours. In
religious belief, he is an Ang.

"NELSON, ‘Rev. Thomas Alexandor |
(Presb.), is the s. of Thos. Nelson, |
by his wife, Klizabeth Nicholson,
and was b. in Montreal, 1843. At
a comparatively early age he re-
moved, with other mems. of his
family, to Oakville, Ont., and sub-
sequently, to Indianapolis, nd.
Whilo at Oakville he attended the
Grammar Sch, at that place. In
1861 he entered business in a sub- |
ordinate capacity, but a few yrs. |
later found him occupying the best
position in the largest commercial
house in the State. Failing health
and a growing distaste for business |
resulted in his entering Ashbury |
(now De Pauw) Univ. to prepare for |
the ministry. Whilst pursuing his |
studies he received and accepted a
call to the secretaryship of the
Y.M.C.A., Toledo, Ohic, Here he |
laboured from 1571 to 1874, when
he removed to N. Y. and entered
the Union Theol. Semy., from which
he graduated, 1877, and, receiving
in June of that year a call to the! ¢
Memorial Presb. Ch., Brooklyn, he |
entered upon his labours there the
following Aug. Under his ministry
the ch. soon more than doubled its
numbers, and so much confidence in |
the future was inspired that the
erection of a new and more commo-
dious place of worship was deter- |
mined on. ‘The new _ building,
situated on 7th Ave. and St. John’s |
Place, was opened, Feb., 1885, and is |
one of the handsomest ecclesiastical |
edifices in the ‘‘ City of Churches.”
Dr. N. (he received the hon. |
degree of D.D. from the Univ. of |
N. Y., 1887) cluims no advanced
ideas in religious theory, but his |
mind is naturally liberal and _ his!
views cheerful. He is an eloquent |
preacher and an_ indefatigable |
worker. In 1885 he was chosen Mod-
erator of the Presby. of Brooklyn, |
which comprises a large number of
clerical omit lay delegs utes—am ngst
the former being Doctors Cuyler,
DeWitt Talmage, Hall, and other

and memoirs, His work has been
principally in the math. astronomy

of the solar system, particularly |

Neptune, Uranus and the moon;
but the whole plan includes the
most exact possible tables of the
motions of all the planets. Among
the most important of his papers
are: ‘*On the Secular Vari: .ions
and Mutual Relations of the Orbits
i the Asteroids’’ (1860), ‘‘ An In-
vestigation of the Orbit of Neptune,

London, 1875, and built up an ex- |
tensive med. practice in that city. |
It was while living there that he |
was initiated into the Ind. Order |
of Foresters. He rose rapidly to}
the position of Chief Executive of |
the order, and at the time of the |
separation, 1881, he was elected to
the office of Supreme Chief Ranger,
which he has held ever since. His |
devotion to Forestry, with the ever- |
increasing demands on his time |
made by the growth of the order,
necessitated the neglect and final
abandonment of the active duties
of his profession, The rapid growth
of the Order of Foresters suggested |
the desirability of having execu- |
tive oftices in Toronto, to which |
city they were removed in 1889,
and since then Dr. O.’s_ official

residence has been in that city. |

Dr. O. is not only a Forester.
He is also a Freemason, of high
degree, a Good Templar and an
Orangeman. In 1873 he was one
of the deputation sent to Belfast
from the Grand Orange Lodge of
grit. Am. He has always taken an
interest in rifle shooting, and was a

mem. of the tirst Wimbledon team |

sent from Ont., 1871. At a dinner
given to him in London, Sept., 1894,
he deseribed himself as being ‘‘ more
than a Brit. subject, for he had the
honour to be an ally of Gt. Brit.”
Continuing, he said that it was
‘owing to the assistance and in-
fluence of the Six Nations of Indians
that the Brit. Crown now held Can.”

fine ballads and poems, some of which
have been published under the title

‘* Faust,” which enioyed an unpre-

produced in a London theatre. He
| found acceptance with the public,
and has since then issued books in
rapid succession. By his work,
‘* Pierre and His People ” (1892), he
earned the title of ‘* The literary
| discoverer of the Can. North-West.”
| He subsequently coatinued these
| sketches in the sequel entitled ‘ An
Adventurer of the North,” with the

Trespasser”; ‘*The Trail of the
Sword”; ‘“When Valmond Came
to Pontiac”; ‘*The Seats of the

Dr. Douglas, and, later, studied for

‘the ministry at Victoria Univ.,

tered in the Arts dept. His period

at Markham and other places, and
while at Thorold, 1861, he was re-
ceived into full connection and

asst. to the Rev. Rich. Jones. From
there, at the expiration of his term,
he was sent to BloorSt. Ch., Toronto,
and associated with the Rev. Dr.
Dewart, then at Elm St. Ch. Such
was the estimation in which tne

young clergyman was held that, in |

1866, he was chosen to be first pas-
tor of a new ch. in Hamilton, to
commemorate the centenary of Am.
Methodism, and thus became, within
the short space of 10 yrs., the min.
in a cong. of which he had formerly
been a mem. and Sunday Sch. teacher.

“Mr. P.’s acceptance of this charge,” |

we are told by Mr. Rose, to whose

work on ‘Can. Biography ” we are |

indebted for nearly all the facts em-
braced in this article, ‘‘ was at first
opposed by the Conf. Stationing
Comte. ; but their misgivings astothe
ability of the youn saciepnci to fill
the ch. soon Bored | be groundless,
for such were his talents and popu-
larity and so forcible was his preach-

titudes flocked to hear the Word
Saat by his mouth.” While at
amilton, Mr. P. was invited to

Toronto to take charge of the ch.
in Adelaide St., but fearing that the
time he would have to devote to the
superintendence of the building of |
the Metropolitan Ch., then in course

of erection, would interfere with
what he considered to be strictly

| ministerial work, he declined the

call, and accepted that of St. James
St., Montreal, which had been sim-
ultaneously placed at his disposal,
in succession to his old friend, the
Rev, Dr. Douglas, Equal success

, attended Mr. P. in this his new field,
Originally an Kj ag age in relig. |

ond after a space of 3 yrs. he re-

| turned to Toronto and was placed in

Bd. of the Wesl. Theol. Coll., Mont-

interests of the Methodist Ch. In
1878 he was elected the first Presdt.
of an assn. which was then formed
in Toronto, embracing ministers of
all denominations. In July of taat
year the Wesl. Univ. of Ohio ad-
mitted him to the degree of D.D.
On the death of Dr. Topp, he was
apptd., in 1879, to succeed him as
Chairman of the Home for Incur-
ables. At the Genl. Conf. of 1886,
Dr. P. was elected Genl. S2cy. of Edu-
cation for the Meth. Ch., which oftice
he holds at the present time. At

| the Convocation of Victoria Univ.,

1894, the degree of D.D. was con-

| ferred upon him by the unanimous
| vote of the Senate. Dr. P. was sta-
ing that Sunday after Sunday mul. |

RAWLINGS, Edward, insurance
manager and president, was b. in
London, Eng., 1839. Ed. in Eng.
and France, he commenced his busi-
ness career in the service of the
Kuropean Life and Guarantee Co. of
London, Eng., Sept., 1853. Ten yrs,
later he was chosen to establish and
manage a branch of the co. in Mont-
real, This was the first introdue-
tion of the system of ‘‘ guarantee”
to the Am. Continent, and the

business was naturally of a very
slow growth and somewhat difficult
to inculcate. Mr. R. continued
to manage the Kuropean Co. in
Can. until its retirement in 1868,
by which time a large and exten-
sive clienté/e and prosperous business
had been acquired. The European
Co., which at first confined its busi-
ness to guarantee and life, ventured
subsequently upon other branches of
ins., Which proved disastrous, and
the cessation of the co, in Eng. re-
sulted in the transfer of its Can.
guarantee business to the Citizens’
Ins. Co. of Can., a local co., like-
wise a mixed one; but it was, how-
ever, the only organization in Can,
then prepared to take up the busi-
ness. Mr. R. continued for some
yrs. in charge of the guarantee
wanch of the Citizens’ Co., but it
being evident that the association of
other branches of ins. was detri-
mental to the interests of guarantee
clients, he determined upon the
establishment of an independent co.
for the transaction solely of guaran-
tee business, upon the same lines as
the original Guarantee Soc. of Lon-
don, which had been in existence for
| over 45 yrs., and had witnessed the
surrender of numerous inexperienced
jand over-venturesome competitors.
| His plan was successfully accom-
| plished in 1872 by the organization
iof the Can, Guarantee Co., now the
| Guarantee Co. of North Am., whose
| career from the outset has been one
_ of complete success. In 1873 the co,
‘made its first contract for the

guarantee of the employds of U.

corporations. It met with such
favour that later the co. formally
entered the U. 8S. by making the
required deposit of $200,000 with |
the Ins. Dept. at Albany. It now
possesses branches in New York,
Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, To-

and the U. 8S., as well as in Mexico

small volume of verse: ‘*The Pro. |

pheey of Merlin, and other Poems.”
It was favourably noticed in the
press. The late Rev. George Gil-
fillan gave it a cordial welcome in
the Dundee Advertiser, and in a
letter to a friend then visiting
Montreal, wrote: ‘* Tell your friend
R. that I read his poetry with
pleasure. It has very considerable
spiritand genius.”? The Dublin Univ.
Mag. pronounced it ‘tin every way

worthy oF the Land of the Lakes.” |

The Montreal Witness said it was
“ore of the prettiest volumes as,
perhaps, the sweetest book of fugi
tive poems which has appeared from
the Can. press.” The Can. Journal
of Sctence, Lit. and History, the
Toronto Globe, the Ch. Herald
(Toronto), the Can. Idd. News, the
N. Y. World, the Can. Lit. Journal,

the Week (at a later date), and |

several other periodicals and papers
reviewnl it most favourably, The

volume was abundantly used for |

anthologies, birthday - books and

readiny-books in the U. S. as well |

asin Con. Longfellow inserted the

two voems (‘* Devenish” and ‘ Kil- |

lynoogan”’) in Volume V. (Lrel.) of |

the ssries of ‘* Poems of Places,” of
whie!s he was ed. He likewise
wrote «a letter of praise to the
author, as did also John G. Whittier

and \Vm. Cullen Bryant. Mr. R.’s |
translations have been commended |

by Matthew Arnoid, the late ed. of
the 20 A@italia, the late Hon.
P. J O. Chauvean, and other

scholas. As a prose writer Mr. R. |

has always cultivated clearness and |
a certain reserve—giving emphasis |
to his thought rather by a careful |

choice of words than by the multi-! giction”’—W. C. Bruant’s letter to Mr

plivat‘on of epithets. He has always |

refrained from writing on subjects
to which he had not given attention.
If he had thought less of his rdle as
a journalist he would have contrib.
uted more to the mags., but he has
always given the first place to the
duties that lay nearest at hand. As

& reviewer, ne has always been |
conscientious, and many letters from |

witness to his thoroughness and the
soundness of his judgment. Mr. R.’s
favourite studies (apart from general
literature) are philol., ethnol., hist.
and folk-lore. With Prof. Pen-
hallow, of McGill Univ., he in-
augurated the Montreal branch of
the Am. Folk-lore Soc., of which, as
well as of the Eng, Folk-lore Soc. , he
has long beena mem. Ee was Presdt.
of the Montreal branch in 1894, and
has beer also Presdt. of the Soc. of
Can. Literature, of the Soc. of His

torical Studies, and the Second Sec,
(Eng. Lit. and Hist. )of the Royal Soc.
of Can. In 1877 he was made an hon.
mem. of the Lit. and Hist. Soc. of
(Quebec, and, ta 1895, he contributed
a sketch of tire late Hon. Sir L. H.
Lafontaine, Bart., to the ‘* Memorial
Biographies” of the Historic Geneal.
Soc. of New Eng. In 1896 he was
elected a Fellow of the Royal Soe. of
Lit. of Gt. Brit. Mr. R.’s more note-
worthy contributions to the news
paper and periodical press would, if
collected, make several volumes. He
has long contemplated a series of
selections from them, and still hopes,
we believe, to put his design into
execution. Although in recent yrs.
his muse has been comparatively
silent, the little velume of 1870 con
tains but a fragment of Mr. R.’s
postical writings, and, as even that
has long been out of print, we may
hope that he will ere long give us
another book of poems, — 270 Laval

While a young man Mr. R. wrote
some articles dealing with public
questions for L’ Opinion Publique,
which attracted no little attention.
After his restoration to health, he
resumed his literary labours, taking |
up the subject of the deportation of |

|

|

the Aecadians from their native |

country by the Eng., in 1755.

Being a direct dese ‘endant of some |
of those who were despoiled and |
expatriated, and having access |

}

much new material on the subject,
Mr. R. had a special interest in
taking up this ‘‘ mournful epic.” In
his work ‘* Acadia,” being ‘‘ missing
links of wa lost chapter in Am, hist.”
(2 vols., N. Y. and Montreal, 1895),
he has arrived at the conclusion that |
the deportation of the Acadians was |
not only cruel but unnecessary, and |
that it was not ordered by the Home
Govt., but was carried out entirely
on the responsibility of Gov. Law-
rence and for his own purposes.
“The book,” says the Toronto
Globe, ‘is more fascinating and
more stirring than a roniance. It
approaches in length nearly a thou
sand pages, large octavo, and though
the author’s purpose is anything but
to please, the interest intensifies
with the theme’s progression. The |
style is copious and exuberant, and |
possesses both grace and lucidity.

he received his early education in
his native plac e, afterwards matricu-
lating into Toronto Univ. He like-
wise studied for the minis stry, taking
the theol. course at Knox Coll.,
same city. Circumstances led him

to embrace a mercantile life, and he |

has now been for many yrs. at the
head of the largest dry goods house
doing business in Belleville and the
surrounding dist. Mr. R. is an ad-
herent of the Presb. Ch., and has

Belleville Mechanies’ Inst. (of which
he was for some time Presdt.), he
took a leading pert in securing the
formation of the local Bd. of Trade,

him is due likewise the construction
of the great bridge connecting the
mainland with the Co. of Prince
Edward, and also largely the erec-
tion of the fine new hotel lately
opened in Belleville. After declin-
ing the offer of municipal and Parlia-

mentary lL nours on various occa-
sions, he ran in West Hastings, as
an Ind. candidate, at the Dom. zg. e.

peared from Mr. R.’s pen, inelud-
ing: **The Unequal Distribution of
| We alth”; ‘‘The Fallacy of Insol-
| veney”; and ‘* The Church and the
Labour Question.” Though an in-
dividualist, he holds that all those
| things which are naturally monopo-
| lies ought to be brought under State
|; control as speedily as the advance
| of social enlightenment will permit,
and the income therefrom applied to
public revenue. Politically, he is a

of his powers as a financier and

asked for public subscriptions to the
hospital through the Telegram, and
in. ew weeks $15,000 were sub-
sc; +d and paid. At a cost of
$30, JO he built and founded, in
connection with the Hospital, the
Lakeside Home for Little Children,
at Lighthouse Point, Toronto Island,
with an accommodation for 150
patients and an entire hospital equip:

in that office on the death of the
latter, 1891; indeed, every honour |
at the disposal of his fellow-crafts-
men has been accorded him. Mr. |
R. was Presdt. of the Can. Copyright |
Assn., 1888-96, and rendered im-
portant services in that regard. He
is the author of the ‘‘ History of the
Degrees of the Cryptic Rite in
Can.,” etc. (1888); of the ‘ History
of the Knights Templar of Can. |
from the foundation of the Order to |
the present time ” (1890); of ‘*Talks

‘*Robertson’s Landmarks of To-

contributor to the U. C. Coll.
Memorial Volume, 1893. He is now
engaged on a complete history of
Masonry in Can. In 1888 the am-
bulance system in Toronto was un- |
satisfactory, and with a view of
making it efficient, Mr. R. imported
from London, Eng., a modern ambu-
lance, fully equipped, and presented
it to the city. It marked a new era
in this humane work. The city has
now 5 ambulances and a staff of offrs.
for this special dept. But it is as

1896, Mr. R. was returned to the
Ho. of Commons, for East Toronto,
defeating Emerson Coatsworth, the
candidate of the Tupper Con. Admn..,
by a majority of 1616 votes. He was
returned as an Ind. Con., pledged to
oppose any Govt. which would in-
terfere with the Man. Sch. question,
and pledged to support the ‘Na-
tional Policy,” and to vote fr the
general good of the country. His

ve a creditable one. Mr. R. is an

where he took his degree in 1855,
being made a D.C.L. (hon. causd)
of the same, 1879. Though orig
inally intended for the army, he
had about determined to’ adopt
another career when circumstances
combined to confirm his original in
tention. Can. had contributed gen-
erously to the Patriotic Fund during
the Crimean war, and H. R. H. the
Prince Consort was desirous of ac-
knowledging it by bestowing a com-
mission in his own distinguished
regt., the Rifle Brigade, upon some
worthy Can. For many yrs. both

'
had been dignified and adorned by
Sir J. B. Robinson, who, alike by
official station and public consent,
was regarded as the most eminent
subject of tne Crown in his province,
It was, therefore, a fitting and grace-
ful acknowledgment of his un
doubted pre-eminence that this com
mission should have been placed at
the disposal of one of the mems. of
his family, without purchase, and
such having been done, his young.

all the more popular in the ser- |

vice, as it saved Col. R. scom the
operation of the 57 yrs. rule, to
which he would have fallen a victim

under other circumstances. The |

Army and Navy Gazette, in a highly
eulogistic article, expressed the satis-
faction which was felt in the service
that an officer, ‘‘ zealous, courteous,
capable and deserving,” should thus
escape a regulation which had been

disastrous to the hopes and aspira- |
| Court to have the late Hon. Geo,

tions of so marw old and deserving
officers, and declared that the whole
service would regard it as a healthy
sign of the encouragement of merit.

In 1885 he was elected a Bencher of

from the editorship of the ‘ Re-

special retainers elsewhere. De-
voting himself exclusively to his

and importance, notably the case of
Whelan, convicted in 1868 of the
murder of the Hon. T. D. McGee,
M.P., when he argued for the Crown
the writ of error after the trial
(28 U. C. R. 1). He appeared for
the defence in the famous political

where Mr. R. argued the case in
1893. In the long litigation known |
as Conmee vs. the Can. Pac. Ry., |
Mr. R. acted for the defence (except |

while engaged elsewhere). He also |
appeared before the Privy Council
in the important cases of Baldwin
vs. Kingston, and Tennant vs. the
Union Bank. In 1893 he was re-
tained with Sir Chas. Russell, then
Atty.-Genl. of Eng. (now Lord
Russell of Killowen, Chief-Justice
of Eng.), and Sir Richard Webster,
formerly Atty.-Genl. of Eng., upon

complimented by the London 7J'imes |
for the ‘‘ brilliant speech at the con- |
clusion of the argument in which he |
summarized the whole case, reduc- |
ing it to a series of concise proposi- |

view, demonstrated the absurdity of |

bunal, Mr. R. was offered knight- |
hood for his services, which for pri-

vate reasons he respectfully declined.

Except in so far as the duties of his |
profession are concerned, Mr. R. is
in no way connected with public
life, and is in no sense a public
man. It is well known that he has |
frequently been pressed by Govt. |
to accept of judicial appts., u on |
vacancies arising in various cts., but

he has steadily declined e highest |

sketches of Lower Can. rural life and

faculty of close observation had
developed itself very early in her

be divided into three classes: (1)
The historical Irish romance, of
which the ‘‘ Confederate Chieftains”
is the best and most elaborate ; (2)
her didactic and religious works,
original and translated, of which
‘De Ligny’s Life of the Blessed

and (3) a dept. or sub-dept. of

the romance of Irish immigration.
Under this last head may be in-
cluded her ‘‘ Willy Burke,” ‘‘ The

‘**Aunt Honor’s Keepsake,” ete.

defended, excepting Shortis, the

demned for execution. In 1887 he
defended Caza for murder, and, in
1897, he was chief counsel for the
Hon. J. I. Tarte in the Grenier

is a Lib., and unsuccessfully con-
tested Jacques Cartier in that

himself exclusively to the calls of
his profession, and has persistently
declined all invitations looking to
political or other honours. Mr. St.

eloquence, and on occasions when he
has appeared in public, has won un-
stinted praise from all classes of the
Can. population, for his liberality of
sentiment and broad-minded patriot-
ism. On this account, his speech at
the unveiling of the Chenier monu-
ment, Montreal, Dec., 1895, attracted
considerable attention. Addressing
more particularly his French-Cai.
countrymen, on that occasion, he
said he would like an end put to
exclusiveness, for why should not a
French-Can, be just as much at home
in Toronto as in Montreal? Can,
was a great deal more to them than
the Province of Quebec. He would

young he left home to take a situa-

entered the service of the Montreal

change in his religious views led
to his appt. as Genl. Secy. of the

for 10 yrs., and whilst holding it
employed his leisure in literary
work. Among Mr. S.’s publications
are: ‘* Ville Marie; or, Montreal,

will always be valuable for its pains-
taking research; ‘‘Coins, Tokens
and Medals of Can.,” the pioneer
work on Can. numismatics, and
several interesting historical and
numismatic works published chiefly
for private circulation. Among
these, some of which are now ex-

one of his best is that of the late Sir

paintings, his ‘‘ Battle of Lexing-

SANFORD, Miss Mary Bouchier,
author, is of U. E L. descent, her
sreat - grandfather, Capt. Sanford,
Eeving teen an offr. in the Queen’s
Rangers under Simcoe, B, and ed,
at Barrie, Ont., she was a frequent
contributor to Grip, 1878-82, and
she also wrote pooms and sketches
for the Can. Monthly, Removing to
Cleveland, Ohio, Aug.,
took a position as Secy.
Internl. Inst., an Kgyptological
Soc., was placed on the Publication
Comte. of the mag. issued by the
Inst., called the Intern’. Standard,
and wrote reports, notes and_ re-
views for it. On the death of the
Presdt. of the Inst., to whom she
acted as Private Secy., Miss 8. re-
moved to Baltimore, July, 1889,
and thence, in 1890, to N. Y.,
where she still resides, and is in
active employment, With the ex-
ception of what she did for the
Standard, Miss 8. wrote little for
publication till 1889-90, as she had
no time for origina! work. Since
the end of 1889, however, she has
writven a large number of essays and
miscellaneous articles and pieces for
the Am. press. For the N. A. Review
she wrote: ‘‘ In Favour of the Jew”
and ‘* Rescue Work Among Fallen
Women”; for Kate Field’s Wash-
ington she wrote: ‘The Pretty Type
writer,” ‘‘Chinese Sunday Schools,”’
‘*An Ode to the Starlit Sky,” and
‘Ban Vibber’s Tragedy”; for the
N. Y. Independent ; ‘‘ Religion and
Public Education in Can.” ; for the
N.Y. Tribune: ‘‘ Nagging,” ‘‘Obsti-
nate Children,” ‘The Can. Woman,”
‘‘Humour and Pathos of the Alms-
house,” ete.; for the McClure Syn-
dicate: ‘*Tares and Wheat”; for
Puck: ‘ Bridget O’Flanagan on
Christian Science and Cockroaches”;

for the Boys Own: ‘*De Leet’l |

Feller” ; for Far and Near: ‘* The
Story of Dorothie Lamourette.”’
We might add very largely to this
list, which serves rather to show
the variety of ways in which this

talented lady has advantageously
occupied her time than to sum up
what she has accomplished. She
has contributed squibs innumerable
to the comic press, and to the comic
depts. of other periodicals, In ad
dition to the journals and mags.
mentioned she has also written tor
the N. Y. Christian Advocate, the
N. Y. Critic, the Churchman, the
Herald, Harper's Bazaar, Harper's
Youny People, Woman's Cycle, De-
morest’s Mag., the New Peterson,
the Eng. Illustrated, the Hpoch,
Arthur's Mag. and others. In 1897
she published an historical novel:
‘The Romance of a Jesuit Mission,”
which attracted much attention.
She is evidently on the high road to
literary popularity and eminence, —

SANFORD, Hon. William Eli,

is of Eng. descent, though the
branch of the family to which he
belongs has been long settled in
Am. Losing his father in early life,
he was brought up and ed. by his
uncle, the late piward Jackson, of
Hamilton, whose only dau. he after-
wards marrie’. He obtained his
early business experience in N. Y.
Subsequently, he entered into part-
nership with Murray Anderson and
Kdward Jackson, in London, Ont.,
as iron founders. The death of his
wife led to his withdrawal from this
firm. He was afterwards in the
wil business, and was known as
the ‘‘ Wool King of Can.” In 1861
the firm of Sanford, McInnes & Co.,
Hamilton, engaged in the wholesale
clothing trade, was founded. It
existed for 10 yrs. when Mr. Me
Innes withdrew, and Mr. S. con-
tinued at its head. ‘This firm, it is
claimed, completely revolutionized
the ready-made clothing trade in
Can., giving to its customers articles
of clothing in no way inferior in
quality, cut or finish, to the best
custom work. Only first-class work-
men are employed, and the best
of material used. The firm has

cently he has become warmly inter

suffered defeat. He claims the credit
of having been the first to press upon |
the Govt. and Parlt. the necessity of |
a vigorous protection of the fisheries, |
and to have been an active and suc-
cessful diplomatist on behalf of Mari-
time interests generally. He was
apptd. Judge of the Co. Cts, of the |
Cos. of Annapolis, Digby and Yar- |
mouth, N.S., by the Mackenzie Lib. |
Admn., Aug. 21, 1876. As a judge |
several open questions arising out of |
the Can, Constitution have come
before him, in which he has asserted |
the right of a Co. Judge to decide
boldly, even if his judgment should
strike at the validity of a statute or |
the exercise of the prerogative. He
was thus the first in the Dom. to
judicially pronounce illegal the appt. |
of Justices of the Peace by the local
Govts. in the absence, at all events,
of a statute under the authority of
the local Legislature to constitute |
cts., and he held the Can. Temp. |
Act intra vires after the Supreme Ct.
of N. B. had held the contrary, and |
before their judgment was reversed
by the Supreme Ct. of Can. His
Honour has published a family his-
tory and genealogy of the Savery and
Severey families, and has edited for |
publication a history of Annapolis |
Co., and a volume of genealogical
and biographical notes of the eerly
Eng. settlers of Annapolis Co., left
unpublished by the late W. A, "Cal-
nek. In religion, he belongs to the
Ch. of Eng., and is an active and
useful mem. of the Ch. synods. He
is a mem. of the N. 8S. Hist. Soc.,

July 29, 1813, he joined his parents
in Can., 1821. He received his early

|education at U. C. Coll., where

he was ‘‘head-boy” of the institu-
tion in the first year of its existence,
1830, In 1833 he was apptd. a
king’s scholar, which enabled him to
obtain a free course at an Eng.
univ. He proceeded to St. John’s
Coll., Cambridge. While there he
shared in the influence resulting
from 2 1n0vements which were then
stirring to their depths the minds
of young and old, viz., the revival
of reality in ch. life and usage, con-
sequent on a renewed exam. of ch.
records and documents anterior to

ithe division into East and West ;

and the Brougham movement in be-
half of less antiquated methods of
education and the diffusion of ‘* use-
ful knowledge” among all classes.
Graduating B.A., 1837, he returned
to Can., 1838, to become at once a
busy pioneer in the promotion of the
‘*new learning” in both its branches,
handing on the torch in 2 capacities:
Ist, as a teacher of youth in the
institution where he had himself
been formerly trained ; and 2ndly,
as organizer and incumbentof the
first free ch. in Toronto, the now
important ch, of the Holy Trinity.
After many yrs. of labour in these
2 posts of public usefulness, he was
compelled, by a threatened break-
down of physical and mental powers,
to retire into comparative privacy.
He had proceeded to his M.A.
degree, 1840. On revisiting Cam-
bridge, 1852, he received the degree
of D. D. from his Alma Mater, and, in
1867, he was admitted D.D. {comi-
tatis causa), at Oxford. Dr. 8S. was
for some yrs. ed, of the Journ. of

| pressions of admiration and respect due to
| one who, through long years, has worked
| indefatigably for the glory and good of the
land of the maple leaf.”—Matl and Empire.
“To Dr. 8., Can. (Upper Can. especially)
owes much, not only for his actual service
in the elucidation of its pioneer history, but
also for the spirit of enquiry, in conjunction
with a love of learning and pride in things
Canadian, which he has aroused in the
minds of so many of his younger comps:
| triots.”—John Reade.

SCAIFE, Arthur H., author and
journalist, is Eng. by birth and edu-
|cation. Coming to B. C. some yrs,
| since, he took part in establishing
the Province, a weekly review of
current events, which has since
attained a wide circulation and in-
i fluence. In addition to editing this
paper, Mr. 8S. gave much of his
attention to the publication of a
series of charts, entitled ‘‘ Scaife’s
Jomparative and Synoptical System
of History, Applied to all Coun-
tries,” which have been published
by a co.in Victoria. He has also pro-
| duced several works of fiction under
ithe nom de plume of ‘* Kim Bilir,”
|One of these: ‘‘As It was in the
Fifties ” (1895), has been pronounced
a very strong story. In Dec., 1897,

there under a private tutor. He|
studied law in the office of Crooks
& Smith, Toronto, and was called to
the bar, 1848. He entered on the
practice of his profession in Ottawa, |
and soon became one of the leaders |
of the local bar. Elected Mayor of |
Ottawa, 1852, he was, at the g. e.
1857, returned to the Legislature,
as mem, for the city. After suffering |

defeat in 1863, he remained out of
public life until the Union of 1867,
when he was elected to represent the
Federal Capital in the first Legisla

i ture of Ont. He continued at To

ronto until 1873. In Dec,, 1871, he
was elected Speaker of the Ont.
Assembly, and became subsequently
Comnr, of Crown Lands under Mr.
Blake in the Admn. formed by that
statesman. He also held the same
office under Sir Oliver Mowat, who
sueceeded Mr, Blake in the premier-
ship of Ont. On the formation of
the Mackenzie Admn. at Ottawa,
Nov. 7, 1873, he was orn of the
Privy Council, and, in Jan,, 1874, he
was apptd. Secy. of State and Regr.-
Genl. of Can. He was called to the
Senate by the Earl of Dufferin, Mch.
13, 1874. Mr. S. remained a mem,
of the Mackenzie Govt. throughout
its existence, retiring therefrom with
his leader and colleagues, Oct. 16,
1878. During the whole of that
period he was one of the Govt.
leaders in the Senate, becoming
afterwards leader of the Opposition
in that body, conjointly with the
Hon. Mr. Pelletier, C.M.G. On
the formation of the new Lib, Cabi-

‘net under Sir W. Laurier, July,

1896, he again accepted office as
Secy. of State and Kegr.-Genl. of

|Can., and continues in the same

at the present time (1898). Mr. 8,
possesses a marked and ready adapt-

|ability for administration, and has

been called upon at one time or an-
other during his ministerial career,
to discharge the duties of almost

|every position in the Cabinet, the

duties being frequently cumulative
in his hands. The legislative enact-
ment by which he is most widely
known, and which it has been said
forms his highest title to a place
among Can, law-makers, is the Can.
Temp. Act, 1875, otherwise known as
‘The Scott Act.” This measure
was the outcome of a long agitation
on the part of the temp. people for
an advance in some way upon the
license laws and the old ‘ Dunkin
Act,” until then the only ones in
force. The ‘‘ Dunkin Act” was a

(LL.D., 1889). He was created a

defective a character that it was, Q, C., by Viscount Monck, 1867, and

but lightly considered by the Pro-
hibitionists, and was not of much
use as a guide in framing another |
law based upon the local option
principle. The Can, Temp. Act,
therefore, is a pioneer in the path
of local option legislation in regard
to the liquor trattic, and as a local
historian has observed, ‘it is a/|
remarkable tribute to the sagacity
and legal ability of its framer that
in the 22 yrs. since it was passed,
although it has been the subject of
the fiercest legal disoutes, not only
has its constitutionality been upheld
by the highest court of the Empire,
in spite of the determined efforts of
the greatest pleaders to overthrow
it, but so perfect have its details

been found that even now some half |
dozen amendments are all that the |
Prohibitionists are asking, and of

these some arise out of an advance
in the temp, sentiment of the
country Which could not have been
legislated for in the first place.”

its origin to Mr. 8., and which now

approved by the High Sch. te..chers

Mr. 8. to be ‘‘ the leading High Sch.
master—the dua of the profession—

that he has thrown much energy and
strong common-sense into his work,
and that, without neglecting any
dept. of study, he has given special
attention to Science and Eng., which,
till ais time, had been much neg-
lected. The result of his admn. is
seen in the fitting up and equipment
of special science-rooms for practical
work by the pupils in chemistry and
physics, and in the greatly improved
status of the science masters. Not
only chemist, and physics, but bot-
any and zool. are now taught by
observation and experience, and the

the schs. to cope with this work by
accepting Science in lieu of French

have also been formed science teach-

He has been for many yrs. ed. and
prop. of the Can. Gleaner (Hunting-

published the stories written by
him, known as the ‘‘ Gleaner Tales,”
which have since appeared in book-
form (2nd ed., 1895). Some of these
tales are based on actual incidents
in the lives of the early settlers in
the old Co. of Huntingdon, and the
scenes of all are laid in the wedge-
shaped territory which forms the
south-western extremity of the Pro-
vince of Quebec, with the St. Law-
rence on one side and the U.S. on
the other. They display a high de-
gree of literary merit. Indeed, it

that object at Knox Coll., Toronto,

Ormiston in that position). Subse-
quentiy, he accepted a call to a ch.
in Louisville, Ky., and finally went
to N. Y. as pastor of 13th Presb.
Ch. in that city. Finding himself too
much hemmed in by the conservative

people there, he resigned his a |

in order that he might the better be
enabled to reach the unchurched

outcome of about 14 years’ labour
was, the Christian Alliance and the

SMITH, Goldwin, author and pro-
fessor of history, was b. Aug. 23,
1823, at Reading, Eng., where his
father was a practising physician,
His family originally resided at
Wybunbury in Cheshire. He re-
ceived his early education at Eton.
On proceeding to Oxford, he first
entered as an undergraduate of
Christ Ch., but being elected to a
demyship in Magdalen, completed
his course in that coll. He gained,

in 1842, the Hertford scholarship for |

Latin, and, in 1845, the scholarship
founded by Dean Ireland for Latin
and Greek. In the latter year he
graduated B.A. as Ist class in Clas-
sics, and subsequently, he proceeded

to the degree of M.A. He gained |
the Chancellor’s prizes for Latin |

Verse, 1845; for the Latin Essay,
1846 ; and for the Eng. Essay, 1847.
In the latter year he was elected a
Fellow of Univ. Coll. In the same

|
year he was called to the bar at |

Lincoln’s Inn, but he has never prac-
tised law. He is an hon. Fellow of
Oriel Coll. and of Univ. Coll. In
1850 he was apptd. by the Govt.,
Asst. Secy. of the Royal Comn. on
the state of the Univ. of Oxford.

He was also Secy. to the 2nd Oxford |
Comn., and was a mem. of the Popu- |

lar Education Comn. apptd. in 1858.
The same year he was apptd. to the
Regius professorship of Mod. Hist.
at Oxford, and he held that chair till
1866. During the Am. civil war, he

became an active champion of the |

North, and in furtherance of that
cause, wrote ‘‘ Does the Bible Sanc-
tion Am. Slavery ?” (1863), ‘‘On the
Morality of the Emancipation Pro-
clamation ” (do.), and other pamph-
lets on the same subject. In 1864 |
he visited the U.S. He met every-
where with a warm and enthusiastic |
reception, and had the degree of
LL.D, conferred upon him by Brown |

Univ. On his return to Eng. he
| published ‘* England and America

(1865), and ‘The Civil War in
| America ” (1866). In Nov., 1868,
| having resigned his chair at Oxford,
he again visited the U. S., and
gave lectures on Eng. Constitutional
History at the newly-founded Cor
nell Univ., Ithaca, N.Y. In 1871,

having exchanged this post for that
of a non-resident professorship, he
removed to Toron! , where he has
|since resided, On coming to Can.,
Prof. 5. at once took a prominent
position in literary and educational
‘circles. He was apptd. a Senator of
Toronto Univ., and, in 1874, was
elected to the Council of Public
| Instrn., Ont., as the representative
of the public sch, teachers of the
Province (Vote; Prof, Smith, 1612 ;
| J. H. Sangster, 1335). He became
also Presdt. of the Provl. Teachers’
Assn. In these and other public
positions to which he was called, he
found opportunity for rendering use-

ful and important services as well to
/ education and letters as to the cause
'of political morality. For some yrs.
he contributed articles on ‘‘ Current
Events” to a mag. published at
Toronto under the name of the Can.
Monthly. Later, he was the main-
stay of the Nation, a weekly journal
| devoted to literature and _ politics,
‘and, subsequent thereto, he pub
lished several series of a periodical
| conducted entirely by himself, called
the Bystander. In 1884 he founded
the Toronto Week, and was, up to
1887, a frequent contributor to its
pages. He now writes for the Farm-
ers Sun, the organ of a farmers’ assn.
|called ‘*The Patrons of Industry.”

‘*Tt was impossible,” said Mr. Le
Sueur, from whose article on Prof. 8.
in the N. Y. Sun, 1891, we have taken
some of our facts, ‘‘ that so much
journalistic work of the very highest
class should not have a benef ficial
effect upon the character of the To-
| ronto press, and to some extent also,
upon that of journalism throughout
the Dom.” Continuing, he observed :
| ‘*For some time after coming to Can.

expressed in his letters on ‘The | ‘Translations from the Latin Poets”

Can. was Ind. A careful study,
however, of the relations between
Can, and the U.S. led him before
long to a different conclusion, and
for some 1.8. past he has not hesi-
tated to declare that Can, is destined
to merge her political life in that of
the U.S.” He has always expressed |
himself in favour of a moral feder-
ation of the Eng.-speaking people.

interesting geol. phenomena of his
native valley, near Dundas, gave rise

| to enthusiasm in scientific work at

an early age, and from his coll. days

engaged in original geol. researches.
After leaving ‘coll., he was tempor

menced his more important investi- |
gations, of internl. character, upon
the origin and history of the Great
Lakes and of Niagara Falls. Many
papers on these researches from his
pen, dating from 1881 to the present
time, have appeared in the publica-
tions of the Am. Phil. Soc,, the Royal
Soe. of Can., the Geol. Soc. of Lon- |
don, the Am. Jour, of Science, the |
Bulletins of the Geol. Soc. of Am., |
etc. These papers and his ‘Glacial |
Erosion in Norway ” (‘‘ Trans. Royal |
Soc. of Can.,” 1887), contain the data |
vathered in the field, which ‘‘ have |
as of the highest value in dispel- |
ling mistaken ideas and leading to
true conclusions in questions of the
greatest interest and importance ”
(Prof. T. G. Bonney), as, for example,
in the supposed sufliciency of glacial
erosion alone, for the creation of
lake-basins and other physical fea-
tures. The author has been able to |
restore the outlines of several great
river and valley systems of the past, |
which are now buried beneath the
drift or drowned under the waters
of the modern lakes; and he was the
first to solve the mysteries of the
origins and the changing episodes of
the Great Lakes and Niagara Falls.
Kstimates of a sontsobires character
as to the age of the Falls have been
made by other writers, but Dr. 8.’s |
computation of 32,000 yrs. was the |
first based upon the discovery of |
their true history. His investiga- |
tions have developed the evidence of |
the stupendous changes of level of
land and sea, such as the oscillation
of the eastern part of the Am. conti- |
nent from a table-land elevated 8,000
or 12,000 ft. above the sea (‘* Recon- |
struction of the Antillean Continent,”
Bull. Geo), Soe. of Am., 1894), and |
extending across and beyond the |
present region of the West Indian |
waters to the recent depression of |
New Eng., so that only a few small |
islands were above the oceanic wat- |
ers, followed by the return of the |
land to the present elevation. Dr, S. |

has shown that these changes of level
have perhaps occurred within the
human period. These complicated
problems form ‘pages in the new
history of the continent, inaugurated
in a great measure by the author,
and they involve some of the most
important points in the final theory
of the Am. continer’ (Prof. J. P.
Lesley). They alsode, op or modify

| our views of the non-purmanency of

land and sea, of ocean currents and
climatic ara, dk and of the causes
of the distribution of animal and

vegetable life. Dr. S.’s reports upon

the geol. of Georgia, although of a
general character, are largely of an
economic nature, but they show the

methodsas his other scientific works.

zation municipal suffrage was ob-
tained, in 1883, for widows and

was the first woman to knock at the

that the doors of the Univ. would

struggle, attended by that sort of
persecution which falls to the lot of
everyone who pioneers a new move-
ment or steps out of line with estab-
lished custom. As a public lecturer,
her principal topic has been ‘‘ Wo-
man’s Sphere.” Mrs. S. was brought
up in the Soc. of Friends, but she
has outgrown all religious creeds.
She now stands in the broad field of
enquiry, a truth-seeker, desiring
knowledge from the interior life,

ssientist,” and likewise ‘‘a scientific
socialist.” —463 Spadina Ave., To

on active service with the volunteers
upon & occasions during the momen
tous period (1865-66). His connec
tion with the press dates from 1860,
in which ysar he commenced to
write for the newspapers both in
poetry and prose. In July, 1866, he
became ed. of Le Canada (Ottawa),

retaining the position until apptd. |

was a mem. of the Govt. at Ottawa.
It is, however, as a literary man

poet he early attracted the attention

of the late Hon. Dr. Chauveau, who |

took pleasure in reproducing some

of his verse in the Journal de l’ Jnst. |
Pub. Later, Mr. S. assisted in|
founding La Revue Can. (Montreal), |
to which he is a contributor to this |

day. Quite recently he was enter-

tained at a banquet given by the|

proprietors in celebration of the
publication in the Revue of his hun-

dredth article. His ‘contributions to |

the periodical press and to the trans-
actions of various literary bodies,
both French and Eng., on literary,

scientific and historical subjects, |
have been numerous, and would, if |
collected, form a small library. Of

separate works from his pen there
have been in verse: ‘‘ Les Lauren-

Nouveaux ” (1880); and in prose :

‘* Histoire des Trois-Riviéres”’ (1870); |
‘* Melanges d’Histoire et de Littéra- |

him to have done in a way to injure |

the Govt, as little as possible. It was
in the early part of the session of
1891 that he launched his first bolt.
He set himself at the earliest mo-
ment to the mission to which the
electors of Montmorency had apptd.
him. The proceedings which fol-
lowed his motion for an enquiry
are remembered by everybody—the
crowded sittings of the committee,
where opposing partisans and hired
lawyers battled throughout 4 torrid
summer mths.; the daily discoveries
of fraud; the life and death fight of
the discredited Govt. ; the storm of
shame and indignation which swept
over the country. The central figure
of that exciting summer was the
man whom ever since the Con. press

of Ont. has pursued with untiring |

vindictiveness. In the face of a
storm of abuse, and in spite of the
alienation of life-long friendships, he
stood to his guns. He fought out his
fight to a finish, and every Can.
who was not blinded by partisanship
honoured his courage and determina-
tion. He proved his charges, but for
that very reason his old leaders
would not forgive him. He com-
pelled them to send away the men
he laid his charges against, but
when it was all over he found that
he could no longer work with his old
party. He became « follower of Mr.
Lacie," Unseated on petition for
Montmorency in the early part of
1892, he was returned for L’Islet, at

a by-election, Jan. 5, 1893, and re- |

mained the representative of that

co. till the end of the Parlt., 1896. |

Mr.T. is regarded as one of the ablest

political organizers Quebec has ever |

had, and to his exertions in large
measure were due the triumph of the

Lib. party at the g. e. 1896, though |

he himself was defeated in Beauhar-
nois where he was a candidate. On
the formation of Sir W. Laurier’s

Cabinet, in the month of July, he |
was apptd. to the office of Mr. of |
Public Works—an office he still re- |

tains. Mr, T. was one of the pro-
moters of the Temiscouata Ry.,
1885; became a mem. of the perman-

ent comte. for the Provl. Agricul
land Industrial Expns., 1887; a dir,
|of the Quebec Bridge Co. (resigned,
1897); and was apptd. a mem. of
| the Council of Agricul., P. Q., same
| year. He was apptd. a mem. of the
| Internal Economy Comte., Ho. of
|Commons, 1896. In addition to
|other political brochwres he is the
author of ‘‘ Procés Mercier. Les
causes qui l’ont pruovoqué. Quelques
'faits pour Vhistoire” (1892), For
some time up to Sept., 1896, he was
ed. of Le Cultivateur (Montreal),
which he founded. Since then he
| has written for La Patrie, of which
| paper, as well as of Le Cultivateur,
his sons, L. J. and E. Tarte, are
| now the props. In Sept., 1897, he
| brought an action for criminal libel
against W. -A. Grenier, the pub
i\lisher of a paper called La Libre
Parole, securing his conviction and
imprisonment. Mr. 'T. was the only
leading politivian of the French-Can.
race who openly espoused the Imp.
Fed. cause. He is in favour of total
wrohibition of the liquor traffic, ‘‘ be

he was ed. at the Quebec Semy.,
after which he spent 16 mths. (1836-
37) travelling inthe United Kingdom,
and in Belgium, France and Italy. |
On his return to Quebec, 1837, he |
entered the Grand Semy., and, |
having followed the prescribed
course in theol., was ordained
priest in his native parish, Sept. |
10, 1842. He remained in the!
Semy., first as a prof. and after- |
wards as dir., 29 yrs., and while |
there compiled several educational |
works for the use of the students.
none of which, however, have been
printed. While still discharging his |
duties at the Semy., he volunteered |
for service to attend the sick and
dying Irish immigrants at Grosse |
Isle, during the prevalence of the
ship-fever, 1847, and was himself |
prostrated by the disease. In 1854 |
the future Cardinal went to Rome,
where, after 2 yrs., he took his|
degree of D.D. In 1860 he was |
elected Superior of the Semy., and |
became ea-officio Rector of Laval |
Univ., an institution in whose in-
terest he afterwards journeyed to
Rome on 2 occasions, namely, in
1862 and in 1864. In 1869 he at- |
tended Archbp. Baillargeon during |
the sittings of the Vatican Council,
as his secy. and theologian. He had
previously, in 1862, been apptd. a
V.-G. of the Archdiocese. The
duties of his several offices he con-
tinued to discharge up to the death
of his venerated predecessor in the
Episcopate, Oct., 1870, when he was |
chosen as his successor. Dr. T. was |
duly consecrated in the Basilica of |
Quebec by the late Most Rev. J. J.
Lynch, Archbp. of Toronto, Mch. 19,
1871, and forthwith entered upon |
his duties. As 16th Archbp. of
Quebee, one of his first efforts was
directed towards freeing the Coll.

at Ste. Anne de la Pocatiére from
its financial difficulties. After 7
years’ labour, with the assistance of
iis clergy, whose zeal and generosity
in this as in other matters he has
always been glad to acknowledge, he
succeeded, Soon after his elevation,
His Grace went to Montreal as Apos-
tolic Del. to enquire into and report
upon some unforeseen difficulties
arising out of the erection of certain
parishes in that city, and, at the
end of 1872, he proceeded to Rome
with a view of procuring a final
settlement thereot. In the same
year he founded in Quebec the Hotel-
Dieu du Sacré-Cour, a hospital which
has since become of great local bene-
fit. He also adopted measures for
the reconstruction of the ch. at Ste.
Anne de Beaupré, a shrine which for
250 yrs. has been the Mecca of
devout pilgrims seeking restoration
of health. In the following year he
began the construction of a semy. at

| Chicoutimi; in 1874 he took part

in the 200th anniversary of the
foundation of the Episcopal See of
Quebec; in 1873, and, in 1878,
he presided at 2 Provl. Councils;
in 1879 be enlarged the curric-
ulum of the Coll. of Lévis, by giving
it a classical course. In 1882, and,
in 1884, he was again at Rome. On
June 7, 1886, he was created a
Cardinal Priest of the Holy Roman
Church, with the title of Sainte
Marie de la Victoire. His Eminence
being the first native of Can. to be
elevated to the Sacred Coll., and
being a prelate personally popular
and beloved by all classes, his appt.
was received with great rejoicing
throughout the country. He was
presented with an address of con-
gratulation from the Legislative
Assembly of Quebec and the Mayor
and City Council of Quebec, and
was afterwards feted in that city, in
Montreal, Toronto and elsewhere.
He received the chapeau from the
Pope’s hands, Mch. 17, 1887. In

cese, and Mgr. Bégin, his coadjutor,

the Globe, he was described as the
‘‘bhest literary critic Can. had pro-
duced.” In his new field of labour,
John Reade places him among the
masters of the art of story-telling.
** Indeed,” says the ed. of Old and
New, ‘‘some of his short stories may

be said to be aha sant in narra: |

tive skill, character drawing, humour

and pathos.” As a delineator of |
|
French-Can. character he has created |

a field which is almost entirely his
own. Mr. T. m. Mch., 1873, Ade-
laide, dau. of the late Alex. St. Denis,
of Point Fortune, P.Q., a lady of
high intellectual attainments, who
has herself won no inconsiderable
reputation as a writer. Politically,
Mr. T. was bred a Tory and Free
Trader. After the ‘‘ Pacific Scandal”

he followed Mackenzie, but is now |

out of politics. He has always fav-
oured Can. ind. of Gt. Brit., prefer-
ring that the country should become
an auxiliary or equal kingdom, by
the monarch taking the titleof Queen

or King of Can., and being advised |

solely by native ministers in all Can.
affairs. Such a relationship to the
Crown, he thinks, would make Can.
as ind. as Eng. or Gt. Brit., and
would be perfectly consistent, as
history shows, with either Can. or
Gt. Brit. remaining uninvolved in
wars in which the other might be
engaged. By this plan Canadians

could retain the invaluable boon of |
responsible govt., the monarchical |
system and all the traditions of |

their race, and be joined in a peace
league, but not in a war league, with
the Mother Country. —201 Columbus

early proof of possessing a voice of

later, removed with others to Sand-
wich, in the same State, of which
town they were the incorporators
(see ‘‘ Burke’s Peerage”). B. at
Amherst, N.S., July 2, 1821, he
was ed. at Horton Acad., and grad-
uated M.D. at Edinburgh Univ.,
1843. In the same year he was
admitted a mem. of the Royal Coll.
of Surg., Edinburgh. Dr. T. com-
menced the practice of his profes-
sion in his native co., and speedily
secured an extensive business. He
entered public life at the g. e, 1855,
being then returned to the local
Assembly as mem. for Cumberland.
The unsuccessful candidate was no
less a person than the late Hon.
Joseph Howe, then leader of the
Lib. party in N. 8., and afterwards
Lt.-Gov. of the Province. On enter-
ing Parlt. the new mem., conscious,
it is said, of the weak points in the
old Con. programme, ts up and
was allowed by his seniors, to adopt
a new, & more progressive and a
more lib. policy. It 1s also recorded
of him that, ‘‘like Disraeli, he edu-
cated his party; he brought them
round to take a more comprehensive
view of affairs, he attracted to him-
self the more moderate men of the
opposite side, and with so much
effect that, in the following year,
the reconstructed party came into
power, and ‘the young doctor,’ as he
was called, became Provl. Secy.”
From that time till the Confedera-
tion of the Provinces, 1867, he was,
perhaps, the most prominent figure
in local politics, having succeeded to
the premiership in 1864. In the
accomplishment of Confederation,
and the establishment of the Dom.
of Can. he bore a conspicuous part,
attending the Charlottetown and
Quebec Confs. and afterwards going
to Eng., when the question was
settled at the Westminster Palace
Hotel Conf, For his services in this

other Provinces of the Dom. He
was sworn of the Privy Council,
June, 1870, taking the office of
Presdt. of the Council. Transferred
to the Dept. of Inl. Revenue, July,
1872, he succeeded Sir Leonard
Tilley, as Mr. of Customs, in the
early portion of 1873, and he was
still holding that office when the
Macdonald Admn. resigned in the
autumn of that year. During the
5 yrs. that the Con. party was
in Opposition, Dr. T. was Sir John
Macdonald’s principal organizer and
adviser, and to no one was the
Con, party more indebted than to
him for their return to power in
1878. While in Opposition he elab-
orated and brought before Parlt.
the scheme of moderate protection
for home industries, known as the
‘**National Policy,” which was subse-

Sir John Macdonald. Frotn that |
time he threw the weight of his
influence in favour of Confederation, |
and the ultimate acceptance of the |
scheme by the Legislature was |
largely due, as has been acknow-
ledged, to his loyalty, tact and |
popularity. Among the various |
public measures which Mr. V. in- |
troduced and carried through the

for the election of mems. to the Ho.

line from New Glasgow to the Strait

was the first mem. of the Ho. of!
Commons to be elected under the |
Dom, Ballot Act. As a depart- |
mental chief at Ottawa, perhaps his |
most important achievement was |
the putting into operation the Act
establishing the Royal Mil. Coll., at
Kingston. He took the greatest
interest in the undertaking, and
gave much of his time to a per-
sal supervision of the plans and
works connected with the coll.
buildings. He had also much to do |
with the selection of a suitable
staff of officers to take charge of the |
new institution. Mr. V.’s latest
official act was to serve as a del. to |
Eng., 1882, for the N. S. Govt., in
connection with the construction of
the Western Counties Ry. Co. On
that occasion he was given the
requisite authority to sign Provl.
bonds to the extent of 5 million |

Joliette, Tll., Feb. 3, 1843, he was |
in his 14th year forced, by the death |
of his father, to find employment in |

order to provide for the wants of
the other members of the family.
He began at the foot of the ladder
as office boy at the ry. station in his
native town. Later, he became a
telegraph operator on the Ill, Cen-

tral Ry., and, in 1858, joined the |

Michigan Central Ry. Co. Here he |

served in various capacities till he
reached the age of 21, when he ac-
rs an appt. as ticket agent and
telegraph operator on the Chicago
and Alton Ry. He was afterwards
for 3 yrs. train despatcher, 1 year
Supdt. of the Telegraph, and 8 yrs.

Div. Supdt. on this road. Rising in |

the service as his merits became
more widely known, he was, in 1872,
offered the position of Genl. Supdt.
of the St. Louis, Kansas City and
Northern Ry. From there he went

in 1874 to the Southern Minnesota |

Ry., as its Genl. Mangr. The line
was then in the hands of a receiver,
but he quickly extricated it from
its financial difficulties, and by ex-
tending and improving the property
placed it in its present prosperous

ingquish it in “the following year,
when he hag selected by the direc.
tors of the Can. Pac. Ry. to take
control as Genl. Mangr. of what was
then projected, and has since be-
come, the greatest ry. organization
The last rail was laid
in the transcontinental line of ry.
54 mths. after the work of construc.
tion was commenced by the co., and
in much less than half the time re-
quired by the contract between the
Govt. and the co. The system built
up by the co. during the 18 yrs. of
its existence embraces 9000 miles of
ry., extending almost everywhere in
the Dom. and through the States of
Maine, Mich., Wis., Minn. and
Dakota, and its steamship lines

by his elevation to the presidency of
the co. In 1878 he returned to the
Chicago and Alton Ry., and ac-
cepted the position of Genl. Supdt.
of the line, at the same time retain-
ing the presidency of the Southern
Minn. Two yrs. later he was called
to the position of Genl. Supdt. of
the Chicago, Milwaukee and St.
Paul Ry., at that time the most ex-

tensive ry. in the U. S., with more |

than 5000 miles of track in Lowa,

soul of this wonderful organization,
the man whose spirit animates its
activities, and imparts a character
of absolute business perfection to
all its ramifications, who even in his
dreams may be said to work out its
future still more wonderful destiny,
is Sir W. C. Van Horne, who, from
a poor boy, has risen to the proud
eminence he occupies by the sheer
force of genius. Upon the retire.
ment of Duncan McIntyre from the
vice-presidency of the co., 1884, Mr.
Van H. was elected to that office;
and on the retirement of Lord Mount
Stephen, Sept., 1888, he became
Presdt., which office he still retains.

Pac. Ry., the Montreal Gazette gives
every credit for the inception of the
enterprise and the courage and pa-
triotism which instigated its under.

tion, perhaps somewhat on the,
principle that nothing succeeds like

success, contributed in an important |
degree to the triumphs which the |
Can. Pac. Co. has achieved. No one |
more than he realized the necessity |
of subsidiary lines and adjuncts in
the shape of steamship services if
the ry. when constructed was to
prove a profitable financial under-
taking, and to his prescience may
be attributed the acquisition and
construction of the branch lines,
feeders and auxiliary railways
throughout the Dom., as well as in |
the North-Western States which |
furnish so material a traffic to the
main line, and thereby enstire a per- |
manence of prosperity as well as of |
that independence so essential in the |
conception and execution of the |
policy of the road. If, in its be- |
ginning, the Can. Pac. Ry. was re-
garded merely as an effort to throw |
a band of steel across the continent, |
and so fulfil the compact upon which |
B. C. had entered the Confederation, |
under Sir Wm. Van Horne’s admn.,

the scheme quickly assumed a much |
more pretentious and important |
scope. In every detail, in point of
facilities and equipment, in all the
adjuncts of trattic, in the solidity
and durability of its works, and in
the ambitious character of its policy, |
the Can. Pac. rapidly became one of
the leading ry. enterprises not only |
of the continent, but of the abere

The establishment of a steamship
service on the Pacific, giving direct
connection with China and Japan,
and, later on, of a steamship service
to Australia, were accomplishments
attributable largely to the enterprise |
and foresight of the Presdt., whose
busy brain never ceases from seeking
out and utilizing every avenue |
through which trattic can profitably
be attracted to the ry., and the
trade and industry of Can. be pro-
moted. So closely has Sir Wn, |
Van Horne been identified with the

remarkable success of the Can. Pac.

that from noaspect of itsachievement
can he be dissociated. The notable

financial prosperity of the company |

is attributable in large part to the

ability of his management, and the
high credit which the enterprise has
attained has had no more striking
illustration than the fact that the
guarantee of the Can. Pac, has been
deemed in the money market of
London conclusive evidence of the
soundness of the securities of sub-
sidiary and allied lines. That is,
perhaps, the highest evidence pos-
sible to afford of the confidence
entertained by capitalists in the
judgment and ability of Sir Wm.
Van Horne.” Continuing, the Ga-
zelte remarks: ‘‘ From his earliest
association with the co. he has
closely connected himself with Can.
affairs. No more earnest or more
zealous work for the advancement of
the welfare and prosperity of the
Dom. has been performed than his,

| the whole policy of his management

having been consistently directed to
the settlement of the N.-W., the
development of Can, resources, the
extension of Can. trade, the main-
tenance of Can. autonomy, the up-
building of Can. institutions and
industries, and the cultivation of
intercl. and imperial trade. From
the moment he undertook the re-
sponsible and formidable duties of
Genl. Mangr. of the ry., Sir Wm.
identified himself closely and loyally
with the affairs, the institutions and
the national life of the Dom., form-
ing all his attachments with his
adopted country, and proving him-
self one of the most enterprising and
patriotic of her citizens.” In addi-
tion to other positions filled by him,
he is a dir. of the Postal Telegraph
Cable Co. and of the Commercial
Cable Co., V.-P. of the Duluth,
South Shore and Atlantic Ry. Co.,
and Presdt. of the N.-W. Land Co,

| and of the B. C. Southern Ry. Co,

capacities Dr. W. has been able to
render valuable and effic.ent service,
both in regard to the fisheries and
towards enforcing obedience to the
customs and revenue laws and regu-
lations of the country. His know-

ledge and experience in the fisheries |

service led, doubtless, to his selec-

under the ¢ agreement with the U. 8.,

for enquiring into the preservation

of the fisheries in w aters contiguous |
to Can. and the U. 8. of Am. In|

Jan., 1897, when the report of the
Comn. was presented to both Govts.

The field of enquiry extended from |

the Atlantic to the Pacific. Dr.

W.’s latest duty consisted in his |
appt. to the command of the Diana |

expdn, sent to Hudson Bay, 1897,

for the purpose of determining the |
feasibility of that route as an|
outlet for the N. W. T. to the!

| WALKER, Horatio, painter, was
ib, at Listowel, Ont., 1857. He
‘studied miniature painting in the
| studio of J. A. Fraser, Toronto (q.v.),
and, later, went to N. Y., where ‘‘by
dint of inborn talent and careful and
conscientious study of the best avail-
able examples of art, he has earned
for himself a creditable position in
the ranks of Am. artists” (W. Lewis
Fraser in Century, Nov., 1893). An
/engraving of one of his paintings,
‘* A Morning in Spring,” is given in
the same number of the Century. An
exhibition of 30 of his pictures was
given at the new Cottier Galleries,
34th St., N. Y., 1897. He is de.
scribed in the N. Y. Collector as a
painter of the pasture and the farm,
and that he paints them very much
in the feeling of a Troyon, on one
hand, and a Mauve on the other.
One of his pictures, ‘‘ A Siesta,” is a
marvel of the triumph of art over its
subject. Among his recent works
are: ‘The Prodigal Son,” ‘* The
Barnyard,” ‘October Morning,”
‘* Harrowing,” ‘‘ Hauling the Log-
Winter,” and ‘Calves in Spring.”
Each of these has been spoken of as
a work of delightful sentiment and
feeling. —Studio Building, 10th St.,

clergy and missions was urgent, a
number of priests had to be pro-
vided, in many parishes chs. and
presbyteries had to be built’ or
restored and enlarged, the interests
of education demanded earnest and
immediate attention, and asylums
for the orphan and the infirm had
to be established. Yet within 3
yrs. the entire debt of the diocese
was paid off, and, in 1876, upon

| paying his ofticial visit as Bp. to

tome, he was able to report 28 new
| chs, built, many of them nplexscich
and costly structures, and 17 pres

byteries for the accommodation of

residence, second to none in the
Province, had heen constructed and

organized from among his fellow-
mems., a Free Navigation League,
the purpose of which was to free
the St. Lawrence route, between the
great lakes and the ocean, from all
governmental dues and tolls on craft
and cargoes alike. The League was
the means of procuring, in 1860, with
|the active aid of Sir A. T. (alt,
|then Mr. of Finance, the remission
of canal tolls, which were, however,
reimposed at a later date. In 1888
he took an active part in the agita-

lat Bedeque, P.E.J., Apl. 7, 1836,

of Wales Coll., after which he
entered Acadia Coll., Wolfville
(B. A., 1858; M. A., 1861; hon.
D.C.L., 1883). He studied law
with the late Hon. J. W. Johnston
(afterwards Judge in Equity, N.8.),
and in early life ipparted himself
as ed. of the Acadian Recorder, the
oldest journal in the Province. He

| was also a constant contributor to

other journals, Am. and Eng. He
was called to the bar, N.S., 1863,
and, in 1864, published a pamphlet :
‘Dawn of a New Empire,” in favour

‘of colonial union, but joined the

Hon. Joseph Howe in opposing
what was then styled the imposition

| of the Quebec scheme in det: ince of

|

1064

the popular will, and became Secy.
of the ‘* Anti-Confederation League,”
of whict, slowe was Presdt. He
made his mark at ence as a writer
and speaker, and afterwards became
one of the most successful advocates
of a brilliant bar, and won the

WEATHERBE,

largest verdicts ever recorded in the |

Province. According to the testi-

mony of the present Chief-Justice |
McDonald, he was invincible as a |
cross-examr., and his powers of |

persuasion amounted to magnetism
with a jury. He was a prominent
factor of the Lib. party in the
heated contest arising out of the
** Pacific Scandal,” which swept Sir
John Macdonald from power, and
shortly afterwards he became agent
for the Mr. of Justice at Halifax.
He was selected by Hon, EK. Blake
as one of the counsel to represent
H.B.M.’s Govt., on behalf of Can.,
before the Fisheries Comn., which
sat for 6 mths. at Hastfax, in 1877,
and resulted in an award of 54
million dollars for the Dom. The
Canadians were confronted by dis-
tinguished American counsel, and
the success reflects credit on Mr.
W. and his associates, though he
himself persists that the result was
due to the majority of a tribunal of
3 laymen who had their own ideas
of what was the proper thing to be
done without giving reasons. He
predicted during the proceedings

signal triumphs at the bar. He was
frequently obliged to deliver dis
senting opinions, and on one occa-
sion when several of such opinions
had followed one another, he hu
morously reminded the Court that
his commission named him as the
successor to Mr. Justice Wilkins

who was also frequently a dissenting
judge. The truth is that Judge W,
never took anything for granted,
and never considered an argument
at an end until every possible phase
of the question had been threshed

jout. It was this taste for dialectics

that all future internl. tribunals |

touching Can. would be composed
of eminent jurists. He thinks the

failure to furnish a ‘‘ considered ” |

award has robbed the victory of all
value, and is proving an unmixed
evil. After an exceptionally suc-
cessful career at the bar, Mr. W.
was apptd, a Judge of the Supreme
Ct. of N.S., Oct. 7, 1878, being at
that period the youngest judge who

had hitherto taken a seat on the |

local bench. He had been made a
Q. C., by the Provl. Govt., 1876.
** As a judge,” writes Mr. B. Russell,
Q.C., M.P., ‘“Mr. W. brought to

the Supreme Ct. the searchlight of |

the powerful and highly trained

intellect which had won him such |

and this determination to get to the
bottom of every question presented
for consideration, that mace him so
valuable an accession to the bench
Points that had escaped the atten
tion of astute counsel on both sides,
and of the majority of the Court as
well, would often be brought to
light by the tireless activity of his
luminous and powerful intellect

sometimes in a dissenting opinion
to be adopted on appeal, oftener in
the course of the argument, as a
controlling and determining factor

| in the judgment. It is safe to say

that a more powerful and active
intellect never adorned the bench of
N.S.” He is the author of a char
acteristic and incisive paper on the
Maine boundary disputes and the
Ashburton Treaty, a subject on
which he predicts the last word has
nct been said. This was read before
the N.S. Hist. Soec., of which he
became the Presdt, on the death of
Sir AdamsArchibald. Besides many
other contributions to the press of a
literary and hist. character, he was
selected as a representative of the
Can. bench, in conjunction with
Mr. Justice Miller of the Supreme
Ct. of the U.S., and Cooley, the
well-known constitutional writer, to
contribute to the Am. Law Rev, an
article on *‘ Codification of the Law,”
in which he fearlessly but modestly
opposed the views of David Dudley
Field in a manner which elicited
the approbation of the keen analyti
cal mind of a famous jurisconsult,

Both in this periodical and in the

some time theSecy. In 1870 hisname
came prominently before the public
in connection with the abatement of
the ‘‘Am. Silver Nuisance,” his ser-

which for yrs. have been faithfully
published by newspapers in all
countries and climes. He believes
that all storms, excepting those
usually called ‘ thunder-storms’—
cyclones and great tempests-—are
caused by planetary attraction,
which, he alleges, shifts the earth’s
centre of gravity and gives a vari-
able weight to bodies on the earth’s
surface, Earthquakes he conceives |
to be from the same cause, and
during 3 mths. after one of his
heaviest storms he always predicts
earthquakes, His theory of
tidal waves is also extremely in-
teresting, and appears strongly
probable ; and a number of the pre-

to form an alloy of calcium from
some of its compounds, he noticed
that a mixture containing lime and
powdered anthracite, acted on by
the arc, fused down to a heavy
semi-mete'lic mass, which, having
been examined and found not to be
the substance sought, was thrown
into a bucket containing water, with
the result that violent effervescence
of the water marke 1 the rapid evolu-

tion of gas, the overwhelming odour |
of which enforced attention to its
presence, and which on the applica-
tion of a light burnt with a smoky
but luminous flame. It was acetylene
gas. Further experiments showed
that in a properly built electrical |
furnace, finely ground lime, mixed
with powdered carbon in any form,

can be fused, forming the compound
known as calcium carbide, and that
when this is brought in contact with
water a double decomposition takes
place, resulting in the formation of |
caleic oxide and acotylene gas, the
small cost of the gas not only bring-
ing it within the range of commer-

cial use, but enabling the chemist or
manufacturer to build up a host of |
other compounds on a scale of cheap-
ness hitherto undreamt of. The fact |
that acetylene gas gives a light which |
the spectrum shows to have all the

elements of sunlight, and which can |
be produced probably at one-half the
cost of common gas or electric light,
gives us only one element in the
practical value of calcium carbide.

the North Star (a weekly journal),
he continued for about 20 yrs. In
1884 he disposed of his interest in
these publications, and, in 1885,
removed to Toronto, where he has
since resided. In 1895 he com-
menced the publication there of a

municipal service journal. During |

his residence in Nfd. he was largely
instrumental in transferring the
administration of the Province from
the Radical party to the Con., under
the leadership of the late Sir H.
W. Hoyles. Under later admns.

Mr. W. suffered considerable pecun.- |

iary loss in consequence of his inflex-
ible advocacy of the union of the
colony with the Dom. He was for
many yrs. the publisher of the jour-
nals and sessional papers of the

Legislature, and as an indication of |

the general public confidence in his
political integrity, he was selected
by both parties as supervisor of the

Legislative ‘‘ Hansard,” or Parlia- |

mentary reports of that body, a
position which he held during suc-
cessive admns. by both parties.
Both as a speaker and writer Mr.

W. is still regarded with much con.- |

sideration in his native province.
His affiliations have always been
with the Con, party—the progres

sive liberal Conservatives, whose |

sympathies are in favour of evolution
rather than of revolution. He is
also an ardent advocate of Imp.
Federation. He m. Ist, 1857, Miss

business, on his own account, in the { he is largely interested iu iron manu-

same line. He was for a short time
a mem. of the firm of KE. McGiverin
& Co. In 1852 he entered the
wholesale trade, and, in 1856,
formed a partnership with M. Leg-
gatt (q.v.), which lasted for 30 yrs.
The business grew, and an immense
trade was carried on ali over the
Dom., the firm always standing in
the front rank in commercial cir-
cles throughout the country. After
Mr. Leggatt’s retirement, the firm
name was changed to Wood, Val-
lance & Co., the company consisting
of Mr. W.’s eld. s., and Wm, and
Geo. Vallance. The business of this
great concern is still carried on with
undiminished energy and success.
In addition to the Hamilton estab-

lishment there is a branch house in |

Winnipeg. Mr. W. is spoken of as
a thoroughly representative citizen,
who has freely invested his talents
and his wealth in promoting those
agencies necessary to the develop-
ment of the country. He was one
of the founders, with the late Hon.

John Young and others, of the Dom.
Bd. of Trade, and sat in the Council
of that important body. He was |
also Presdt. of the Hamilton Bd. of
Trade ; Presdt. of the Mech. Inst. ; |
Presdt. of the Hamilton Provident |

and Loan Co.; and Presdt. of the
Mutual Life Assn. of Can. He was
one of the first promoters of the

originators of the iron smelting in-
| dustry in Hamilton, He attended

gress held in London, 1892, and

| 1874-78, when he suffered defeat,
| He was again elected, standing ut
ithe head of the poll, while absent
| from the country, at the g. e. 1396.
He has always held that the Can.
tariff should be so arranged in the
interests of our own people that it
would develup trade along the lines
of least resistance, and he was one
|of the first to advocate preferential
|trade arrangements with Gt. Brit.

was ed. at the High schs. at Col-
borne and Cobourg, and at Victoria
Univ. (B,A., 1875; M.A., 1878).
After graduating as valedictorian of
his class, he went abroad for 9
mths., spending the time in study
and travel, visiting Eng., Scot.,
Jrel., France, Italy and Switzerland.
On returning to Can, he was apptd.,
June, 1876, asst. ed. of the Christian
Guardian (Toronto). Ordained to
the ministry in June, 1578, he gave
4 yrs. to pastoral work, at the end
of which time, he accepted the asst.
professorship in Hebrew aod Phil.
in Victoria Univ. In May, 1884,
he was apptd. Prof. of Old Test.
Exegesis and Lit., in the same in-
stitution. To qualify himself for
special departmental work in Ori-
ental Languages, he went to Europe,
and spent nearly five full yrs. at
Leipzig Univ., in post-graduate
ti and private investigation.
While there, he published ‘‘ The
Text of Jzremiah; or, a Critical
Investigation of the Greek and
Hebrew, with the Variations in the
Septuagint re-translated into the
Original and Explained” (Edin.,
1889). In recognition of the merits

'of this work the Univ. of Leipzig

conferred upon him the degree of
Ph.D., without requiring an exam.
In the autumn of 1890, Prof. W.
published a new investigation on
the subject of ‘‘Messianic Pro.
yhecy,” a work which created a pro-
onged and bitter controversy, but
which also brought him gratifying
testimonies of appreciation and ap-
roval from Hebrew scholars and

iblical students. Not long after-
wards he severed his connection
with Victoria Univ., and has since
devoted his time wholly to his pri-
vate studies. His latest work: ‘‘The
Old Testament Vindicated as Chris-
tianity’s Foundation-Stone” (1897),

/was called forth by Prof. Goldwin

ity’s Millstone,” which appeared not

1868, Later, he opened the missions
at Nelson River and Beren’s River.
Great success attended his efforts
everywhere, and on leaving the
country to come east, 1876, owing
to the illness of his wife, he was
able to give a good account of his
stewardship. During a collecting

all pastoral work. These calls have
come from all quarters, and espe-

| cially from Eng. and the U. 8. Pro-

ceeding to Eng., 1888, he remained
there for some yrs., and has told the
story of the Gospel’s triumphs
among the Indians in the N. W. T.
at the great annual gatherings of

fully ed. and managed for 10 yrs.
He then embarked in manufacturing
and other enterprises, carrying on,
for ac siderable period, the Vic-
toria Bending and Wheel Works,
which he had purchased. His liter-
ary work was not allowed to flag,
however, for he was a_ regular

and statistical subjects to the Mont-
real T'rade Review and the Toronto
Monetary Times, and contributed
occasionally to the Toronto Globe
and other journals, He likewise
was the author of 2 prize essays,
one on *f The Agricul. Resources of

entitlea ‘‘Our Nation-’ ¥uture”
(1887), which takes st’ ground
against Commercial Un. with the

.S. and Imp. Federation. It wasa
reprint of a series of letters that ap-
peared originally in the Toronto
“lobe. These letters attracted wide-
spread attention, as well in Gt. Brit.
and the U.S. as in Can., and did
much to give a cuietus to the Com-
mercial Union fad. Among those
who complimented the author on
their production was Sir John Mac-
donald, then Prime Minister of Can.
Mr. Y. is well and favourably known
as a public speaker, and has delivered
many addresses and lectures in

on ‘*Can. Nationality: a Glance at

livered before the National Club,

It was, with other addresses, pub-

Something he had recently said in a

not any sinister idea or malign no-
tion suggestive of his resumption of
political leadership in this country.
He had had enough of that. He had
always detested it, had kept away
from it, and had got out of it as seon
as he could. He knew no conceiv-
able thing that could induce him to
get into it again. Surely it was not
a criminal wish or a too large ambi-
tion to desire to take part as an inde-
pendent citizen in the public life of
| his native land. He wished that,
